Testing Tune Connect now... it does allow remote ratings. It also gives you a local system-wide hotkey for play/pause on the remote machine, which you don't get with Screen Sharing or VNC - very nice. Doesn't show artwork though. So now it's a tough call between Chicken of the VNC and Tune Connect.

Well, again it comes down to whether you actually want to *use* the remote machine or just have good remote control for iTunes, in which case Screen Sharing swallowing cmd-tab is a major PITA. ./s
