If I'm understanding this correctly, you're going to need a LOT of user ratings before the rating content is worthwhile to most people. Maybe focus the site on capturing ratings to start instead of sharing ratings for products that don't have many ratings (visual studio appears to be highest rated product with 2 ratings). If you just showed me two related products and had me click on my favorite, I'd probably do that 10 times for no good reason. | |||||||||||||||||

> visual studio appears to be highest rated product with 2 ratings That's why Bayesian average is superior; if you don't have enough ratings you basically get assigned the average for all products (or, likely, all similar products in this case). | |||||||||||||||||
