Abstract
To store community program ratings, a rating for a program is received and an identification of whether the rating is a private rating for the user or is a rating that can be accessed by a plurality of other users is made. The rating and an indication of whether the rating is a private rating for the user or is a rating that can be accessed by a plurality of other users are sent to a community rating system for storage. To retrieve community program ratings, a request for a rating of a community for a program is received. User ratings for the program are accessed, the user ratings being ratings previously submitted by users in the community that were not identified as being private, and are presented to the user.
