thumbs down
неодобрение, отказ, осуждение, отвержение
Explanation: Это тот знак, который показывали римляне - зрители на гладиаторских боях вниз - добить, вверх - помиловать, отсюда и произошло...
В данном случае что лучше - надо видеть контекст.

thumbs down
исключение из списка воспроизведения
Explanation: Нашла вот в таком контексте:
Here’s the fun part: Pressing and holding the Thumbs-down button banishes the song from your ears permanently (after a second confirmation press). No further interaction needed. You can do it while running or driving or conversing. It’s gone from your portable player and after syncing, it’s gone from your desktop.
This gets even more interesting with subscription music services fed to portable music players, which let you listen to as much as you want as long as you keep paying. The system feeds you songs you might like. You gong the songs you hate by pressing and holding the thumbs-down button. The next song begins right away. The banished song is kept on a do-not-play list forevermore.
Music subscription services sometimes let you capture and keep songs you like. With this design you would do the opposite: press and hold the Thumbs Up button to keep the song locally for access anytime.
Thumbs Up/Down buttons should also appear on your home audio remote control, for the same reasons.
Explanation: в боях гладиаторов в Древнем Риме если аудитория показывала большой палец вверх, то это означало сохранение жизни побеждённого. Большой палец вниз означал, соответственно, смертный приговор.
Explanation: Почитайте в линке в раделе Intuitive Recording.
Как я поняла это уникальная функция в пульте управления, позволяющая записывать только то, что получило отметку "да" (Thumbs UP) и, соответственно, не записывать то ,что Вы в программе забраковали , нажатием кнопки "нет"(Thumbs down),
Another fairly unique feature is the intuitive recording feature controlled by the Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down buttons on the remote. When you watching a program or browsing through the electronic guide, you can press the Thumbs Up or the Thumbs Down buttons to signify your likes and dislikes of certain genres of programs.
