I do use the ratings to help discover titles I might be interested in -- during the semi-annual sales, mostly. It has its limitations, but it's another tool.

First, I narrow it down by individual genres, since I'm not really interested in some areas no matter how highly the titles might be rated. I also check some of the ratings to try to screen out titles that might be "gaming the system" (as noted in another thread).

And, I don't spend all that much energy on the job. I rank them in order and scan down for something that attracts my attention.
