I am aware of the automatic rating in amarok, but I would very much like a human-style rating system where you can set a rating yourself, and not worry that the program will change it.

will be part of 1.4

So where is it? How do I use it?

No need to reply. I found it in Configure amarok:General:Use ratings. It really should be enabled by default, nobody likes the god-awful "score" anyway.

If it isn't enabled by default on fresh install (by "fresh" I mean "without ~/.kde/apps/amarok") it should by enabled

because users are too lazy to look at the settings?

Becouse "Keep t simple stupid!" is good idea.

Who doesn't want to edit the settings?  Don'y you want to choose your playback options (surround/stereo, crossfade, etc) and maybe set some global shortcuts to make your music listening even more easy and enjoyable?

And because not *everything* can be on by default... Someone has to make a choice somewhere, whether it be the devs or the users.

I use it all the time.

I want to listen to music, not spend all my time rating it.

and this is reason why I said "it should be anabled by default"
