Re:Why Ratings Systems Don't Work by grokcode on Wednesday August 22, 2012 @07:45PM (#4420186)
The more accurate you want to get, the more computationally expensive. Netflix actually did a contest with a million dollar prize to the team that could come up with the most accurate rating prediction algorithm. In the end, the million dollar algorithm was too expensive to implement, so they never ended up using it.
