Guys, PLEASE do not take up this thread to fight over ratings.

Having followed the exchanges, the issue looks simple:
Morbeas feels so strongly about his rating system that he is willing to
lobby pippin endlessly about it.
Pippin politely explains that including that feature would compromise
the performance for the 85-95% rest of us who are not interested in this
change.
Morbeas could not care less about this argument and keeps on pushing.
Now he is "threatening" to move to another application, which is
probably what he should do.

I admire pippin's quick and friendly responses to all these posts. But
let us not turn the possibility of asking for a feature now and then,
into a tool for pestering him until he complies with our very specific
wish.

That's it. I'm out of here and will not pursue an argument.

Thanks, again, pippin, for a great app. I would not be using Squeezebox
if I did not have it.
