You may, or may not know about the new rating system that will be used in the new Zune Marketplace.  Instead of the 5-star ratings you can give to songs, a new 'heart' system will be used.  If you like the song, you will put a heart for it.  If you hate it, a broken heart.  Even Cesar at ZuneInsider is trying to explain.

Many Zune owners are arguing whether or not the new system is good.  What do you think?  Do you [heart] it?  [broken heart] it?  Make your voice heard!  There's a poll taking place right now!  Head on into the forums to place your vote now!

While I think that the new rating system will be nice and simple, easy to use and great for social networking, it is less flexible, I often just go to my five star playlist (I use Windows Media Player, and still will with the new Zune assuming no hacks are broken so this won't affect me) and hit play when I don't want any of the annoying songs I have playing. I don't see why I would want broken heart songs in my library anyhow though except a few that give people a good laugh. I'm in the middle, this would be easier to use, but not very flexible.

this is the stupidest thing MS has ever done relating to the Zune. it's like they have retards working on this stuff sometimes.....like the people who can't figure out how to put a clock on the damn thing!

The reason the zune don't have a clock is because it is not a clock and microfot wants to make you suffer, most of the people already have a clock.

I'm ditching my Zune which I've been using for about a year now because of this bogus new rating system. I categorize my entire collection using ratings, and there is a HUGE difference between a 3 star and a 5 star song. This new system SUCKS!!!!!!!!

Just when the zune stylistically got me to ditch my iPod they go and make it ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS. Cramming 3 4 and 5 start songs into 1 category absolutely BLOWS. If you are going to do something like this for those that don't care that much about their music to break it into 5 stars at least give us the option of CHOOSING one method or the other. I'm very disappointed in you microsoft.
