You can do that with Erland's plugins. If there's a song you like, rate
it (say) 4 stars, and then configure a dynamic playlist that includes
all and only songs that are rated 4 stars and more (or whatever you
want).

SqueezeCenter isn't meant for music management. You're supposed to use
other software, like iTunes, for that purpose. SqueezeCenter is bloated
enough as it is. If you don't want to use iTunes, you can try stuff like
Tag&rename for tagging purposes. That said, I proposed in another thread
an "integrated solution" or a "distribution" for those of us who don't
want to use iTunes and don't want to go on app fishing. You download
that distribution and you get not only SqueezeCenter, but the best apps
for ripping or tagging your music.
