No, they're useless.

"OMG this iz not thier best werk click yes if u agree"

Where do I click to give the original poster AIDS? 'cause I wanna click there.

i don't use iTunes that much & didn't even know there were star ratings.

Oh, you mean in the songs? No, also useless... if you give it one or two stars, why is it on your iPod?

they're very useful if u use smart playlists

"I can't wait to buy some music I hate!"

i would hope one wouldn't buy music they would give 1/2 stars. from torrents though, i get lots of stuff and keep *for a rainy day*

Yeah, true. I download the free tracks sometimes that I don't love, but are worth more than nothing. Mostly, though, it's a mood thing...

there aren't songs that I always want to hear, all the time... I have playlists organized by mood

yeah, that's another question, how do construct ur playlists. i'm always interested to hear people's approaches.

I do. Since I listen to the 'my favorites" play list.

My playlists are all mood-based, including "kicking ass," "having ass kicked," "sitting on ass," and "tapping ass."

if he needs to see a therapist about his playlists

the "ass" playlist approach is both unique and new to me

oh jesus thats funny

I use star as an axis, that with multiple smartlists filtering and subfiltering do well. Genius is helping a lot more, bout time.
