If it wasn't for the introduction you gave here I wouldn't know what the site was about. When I visited the site I had no idea who I am rating the shows for; one person or a group of people or whom? In addition maybe you could provide the YC users with a (demo account) user name and password to test the system? Oh and I tried to rate a show but I got a server error... Side Note: When I go to the sign up page and I try to go back to the main page by clicking on the logo it stays on the sign up page.

Thanks for the feedback. Looks like the site needs better introductory material. The initial screen that you see was intended to give the user a preview of the site, then when they try to rate any show, they are redirected to the sign up page. A demo account wouldn't work for the service because the personalized recommendations would not work well if many different users were using the same account (it would be a strange person). The site allows different users to have their own accounts, then compare how the recommendations would be different if you wanted to watch a show with users x, y, and z by running an algorithm to determine what shows you would like together (or seperately).
