should reviews be in 10 stars?

   I would support a 10 or 15 star system if the system was designed to let reviewers go back and adjust their previous reviews' ratings. In other words, old reviews on the five-star system would be doubled. Then reviewers, at their leisure, would adjust their ratings to what they feel appropriate (i.e., the 10 should really be a 9, etc.). Admittedly that would take quite some time and some people may not bother readjusting (for some that would mean hundreds of changes!).

The 15-star system could be set the middle value of the sets of three, and then reviewers could adjust accordingly after the change was made.

That does sound like a lot of work, but it wouldn't be fair to move a 5-star album to a 10-star album if the reviewer prefers it to be 9 stars and has no convenient way of changing it. Resubmitting reviews would be way too much work

One of those things that hindsight always does.
