The weights should determine what priority each category (rank, last
time played, number of times played, randomness) is given when
calculating a song's position in the playlist. For example, if you have
rating set to 100 and everything else 0, then the playlist should be
sorted entirely based on user-assigned rating. If everything is 25, then
each category figures in evenly.

Odd... Does musicmetadata in your database have all the columns: rating,
lastplay & playcount?
