I came here after the 2.1 release and it has all the great features I want.
May I make the following recommendations regarding half star selections:
* Have a brief delay between the star selection in the menu bar and syncing with the current song (perhaps the same system duration that distinguishes between a double-click and two single clicks). I do a lot of half stars and whenever I double-click to get a half star I get a pause as the iTunes database gets one update and then another.
* If there are no ratings, the click gives the full star rating for the first click. After that have clicks that are within a star rating of the current rating adjust by a half rating. The current behavior only allows for half star ratings that are a half star less than the current rating. So, if you have rated a song 3 stars, if you click on the fourth star the rating goes up half a star. But if you have a song with 3 stars and you click on the fifth star the new rating is 5 stars because you are obviously correcting a star rating as opposed to advancing. Interestingly, this is the behavior when adjusting ratings downward. Now you just have to adjust it so when you click an empty star slot next to a full star it goes up a half star rather than a full star.
Great, minimalist app.
