Please take a moment and rate some tracks in the discography. We'll then be able to generate lists to find out the most popular track by Aphex Twin, Autechre, Plaid, D'Arcangelo etc... hell, even the most popular track in the whole discography! Once all tracks on a release have been rated the average rating on the release is calculated and we'll then have lists on most popular albums, eps.... By rating a particular track you affect the general rating on all releases it appears on (including different catalogue-numbers, ep's and albums).
Look, it's not a matter of life and death and rating tracks might be bizarre for some people, but it's a fun thing so don't take it too seriously, so don't start whining about it!
I guess once when it's all been settled and stabilized it'll be useful for newcomers, and/or if you're not familiar with a specific artist, to find out what stuff to check out first?! For example, you wanna check out Legowelt. What to begin with? Perhaps an album with an average rating of 4.50 than 1.30? That would be my suggestion.
Tip! Wanna know the longest track released by Richard D. James? Simply list all tracks by Richard D James in the discogaphy. Sort it by tracklength. Voila! (If you select Richard D James in the artist box instead of Aphex Twin in the alias box you'll make sure to include all Richards aliases, not only Aphex Twin, see the difference? Good.)
I'll stop rambling now.....

I went through most of the albums I know and voted on all the tracks. Cool feature.

Except when you try to click on the "strotha tyne" track on "drukqs" it says "no such track" so you can't rate that one :\

you can choose the option "discuss this release" when you've clicked on a release in the discography
great new feature imo, there can't be too much of these threads, after all it's what the messageboard was intended for in the first place (among other things) imo

I did a few but the sheer size of the discography was a bit daunting. Quiet day in the office today so I'll go mad with it later. :)

Phob? Once I voted a song, is it possible to get back to the main artist page?
instead of selecting the name of the artist again and go through all the steps again??
