Integrity Rating

Kazaa includes a feature called Integrity Rating.

The use of Integrity Ratings supports the spread of good quality, accurately represented files.

Every user is able to easily rate every file they share based on technical quality and accuracy of file data (metadata).

Users are rewarded for integrity rating their files by earning double points towards their Participation Level when an integrity rated file is uploaded.

Why Should Kazaa Users Integrity Rate Their Files?

In order to guide other users who may be interested in the files being shared, users are encouraged to rate the integrity of their files and delete those that should not be shared. File integrity is based on its technical quality and the accuracy of its descriptive file data (metadata). It is not how much you like or enjoy the file, just its technical merits.

Files can be given the following ratings:

Excellent : Has complete file data (metadata) describing the file and is of an excellent technical quality.

Average : Has some file data (metadata) describing the file, is of a moderate technical quality.

Poor : Poor technical quality, no file data (metadata).

Delete File : Where the file should not be shared e.g. it is virus infected, of unusable technical quality, or illegal.
