The Apple Music App replacing iTunes had better still support Star Ratings!

So it is official, as rumored iTunes is dead, and split into 3 apps (well 4, as syncing is going to be built into the finder).

There is Music, Podcasts and TV.

The thing that scares me is that Apple has already pulled Star ratings from the iOS apps, and replaced it with like and dislike. So does this mean that all ratings are going to go away?

I have been rating my music since iTunes began, and before in fact when it was SoundJam MP.

And honestly I don’t want to lose the granularity of 5 star ratings, but if I have to someone at Doug’s Scripts had better write a script that allows you chose a rating or above to move it to a like, so I can at least recreate my smart playlists with likes.
