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 tracks can have several thousand ratings)

"Like Christmas on a river / Without a boat or Christmas tree / This afternoon with you was something like a letter / The kind that someone writes but never sends." So sings Ryan Adams in "Friends," and it's a great summary of the vague unease I've always felt about the Christmas holiday. And yes, Ryan, you're right: I miss my friends.
