Netflix Changes Rating System

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Netflix is ditching its five star rating system in favor of a simple thumbs up or thumbs down.

Netflix said it tested the new system and there were 200 percent more ratings.

Netflix hopes the new system will get viewers to consider if they really enjoyed a program, as opposed to rating a show or movie on what they think other viewers would like.
