Metacritic, a website that aggregates reviews of music albums, games, movies, TV shows, DVDs, and formerly, books, was launched by Marc Doyle, along with his sister Julie Doyle Roberts and a classmate from the University of Southern California law school, Jason Dietz.
The site is similar to Rotten Tomatoes, besides Metacritic's method of scoring that converts each review into a percentage that the site decides for itself, before taking a weighted average based on the critic's fame or stature, and listing different numbers of reviews.
