Wow. The comments we all left are such a testimony to how we all feel. Click here to see them all: http://bit.ly/2fkOQml Here are just a few examples; - "I would like my star rating back, this is the last straw before I move to another player and another phone! Hello Galaxy" - "I have organized my music this way for years. I am getting more and more irritated with Apple." - "Five star ratings on iOS devices is a must for me. Put them back and I'll stay. Leaving them out adds incentive to move to a more accommodating platform (with next hardware upgrade)." - "This last change is a "last straw" change for me as I have watched the accelerating decline of the iTunes app over the many yearsI have been a loyal Apple fan. To my dismay, I find myself searching for an alternative to this core Apple product. It seems Apple seems to have forgotten that some customers really do like to have their own self-curated music library and the star-rating system is one of the best ways."
