Why head to head beats dragging.
Dragging twelve songs around a list means holding all twelve in your head at once. A head-to-head choice only asks about two. You already know which one you like more. Ordinalist just remembers it for you.

How to rank the songs on an album.
The easiest way to rank an album is to compare its songs two at a time. In Ordinalist, a free app for iPhone, iPad and Mac, you pick an album, choose your favorite from each pair, and it builds the full ranking for you. No dragging. No math. Some regret.
