Rating metrics: Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album is rated in the top 1% of all albums on BestEverAlbums.com. This album has a Bayesian average rating of 80.4/100, a mean average of 80.6/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 81.5/100. The standard deviation for this album is 17.0.

Brilliant composer and an absolute genius.
But one thing you learn in life, when you spend most of it listening carefully to music, is that no one can create a row of symphonies without some of them being more interesting than others :)

Great Symphonies and Karajan is a good conductor, but Beethoven is also overrated. There is simply better classical music out there than Beethoven 9. Start Looking!
