    Your Genres are too limited

    First of all, big thanks for creating The Filter. It's a great idea and sure beats going to Amazon.com and endlessly clicking "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought".

    I have to tell you though, your options for Genres are extremely limited. It's sort of like going to a small-town library and finding 12 categories for the 20 CDs they have on the shelf. I'm into electronica. But there are dozens of sub-genres. Have a look at the Wikipedia entry at the possibilities:

    Two other nit-picks:

    - forcing users to pick 3 initial genres is silly.
    - in addition to the option for:  "I own this, so don't recommend it again." you should have one that reads something like, "Satan's upchuck. Don't recommend this again."

    Thanks a bunch.

    That's what the <10% filter rating is supposed to do.
