Stars offers a distraction-free way to quickly rate songs with a clean design approach.

Thoroughly rebuilt for OS X Yosemite, Stars includes a handy, minimalist iTunes controller that shows the album cover of the song that is currently playing.

The distraction-free way to rate your iTunes library

Stars can alert you with a notification if your song needs to be rated.
Next and previous tracks. Option-click to forward or rewind by 10 seconds (hold the button to fast-forward or rewind). Or drag the scrubber to any point in your song.
