Google Style " Quality Score "

Will Yahoo try to implement adwords style Q scores?

In light of YSM's upcoming changes which include improvements to the interface (..thank God!..) and including a higher CTR reducing CPC ranking system (..which is also good..), will they also implement the landing page quality score fiasco that Google just put in place for Adwords? I hope not. Has anyone heard anything about this?

I've heard that they are introducing a system late next year which will be very similar to Adwords. They will have a QS type thing, but it will be transparent, so for any given ad you have, you should be able to see your QS and therefore you can go about trying to improve it. I guess this also means the strict systems of whoever pays most gets to go to the top of the listings will also be changed in favour of a weighted system with factors such as QS and CTR history. Even if they do implement a landing page score thing, because you can view your QS, I guess this will be much easier to understand and change than the current Adwords fiasco.
