JohnT has been working on a moderately complex project to suggest music you might like.
It can use your plays and ratings to try to match you with others who have similar tastes and then recommend songs you might like.
IF YOU SET IT UP (and take a number)
In MC's options, open General, then Online Metadata, and check the box for "Submit Song Ratings ...". This submits information to our database, giving you a number there. No personal details are recorded, other than your number and your likes.
YOU WILL GET SUGGESTIONS (with previews at Amazon)
To see what you might we suggest, open "Services and Plug-ins" in the tree on the left. Click on "Suggestions".
You will see a list of tracks. The list gets refreshed from time to time. You can get a new list by clicking on "Submit Ratings" at the top of the Suggestion window.
What I like a lot is that you can now click on a track to play a sample of the music or purchase an MP3 download or a CD from Amazon. You may have to refresh the list by clicking "Submit Ratings" to see the links.
