Netflix is Music Archivesditching its five-star ratings system for good in favour of a thumbs up/thumbs down one.

The streaming service's VP of Product Todd Yellin said that thumbs up and down got 200 percent more ratings than the star-rating feature when tested on "hundred of thousands of members" in 2016.

"Five stars feels very yesterday now,” Yellin said, according to The Verge. “We’re spending many billions of dollars on the titles we’re producing and licensing, and with these big catalogs, that just adds a challenge."

A person familiar with the situation confirmed the changes are taking place in April and will roll out globally.

Netflix is also starting a new percentage feature that will use algorithms to show how likely you'll enjoy a movie or a show before watching, according to Variety.

A show that matches a user's taste may get a 98 percent rating. Shows that have less than 50 percent won't display it.
