I fail to see how tracking what people rent is better than tracking how much they like what they rent. And I suspect that the algorithms are somewhat more complex than RMSE, which really isn't complicated at all. At any rate, it strikes me that tracking ratings is much better way to introduce one to new things rather than relying commonalities in the metadata.
