Well, Landmark Value is a written piece, laying out how important the band or artist or album was to prog. Legacy Rating is a rating 1-5 of the same thing, but allows me to score an album both on how much I liked, or didn't like it, as well as how it is perceived in the prog world, with the average of both being the actual rating.
Basically, one is an explanation of the album/artist's position in prog, the other helps rate it.
And I have Legacy Rating so that the rating isn't skewed, so if I listen to, say, an ELP album and hate it, but I know it was still important to the genre and in the history of prog, I can allow it to be fairly rated, not just as to whether I personally liked it or not.
