I use Symfonium to do the same thing.
My rating system is a bit loosey goosey because its hard and tedious to catagorise music into more that 5 levels. Its mostly defined by how much/often I would listen to a song because that seems like a good base line.
Songs sonetimes get upgraded / downgraded on the fly and then siphon in / out to the respective playlists.
- 5 star: high energy, 99% wont skip, will listen to hundreds of times again
- 4 star: any energy just a good song, will listen to many times again
- 3 star: indifferent, might be a hit on the right day in the right mood, wouldnt listen to more than once a week
- 2 star: not for me, can understand why others might like it, wont make it in to any of my playlists
- 1 star: absolutely fucking not, mark for deletion (hyper commercial pop like the overplayed shit through the 2010s mostly fills this category)

you get it! this is my train of thought pretty much!
how likely am i to get off my ass and skip it based on the mood im in.
Depending on how deep the HDD shortage goes, i suppose I’d consider deleting songs based on the rating

Put it this way, Im not deleting songs that I dont like that are part of good albums.
I dont have any 1 star songs currently and barely any 2 stars because I just dont download those artists
