Back in the old days when a bad review (or high praise) meant salvation or bust for a product.
Now, with an endless supply of comments, reviews, and sites to ask and answer queries, the power of a review is seriously diminished.
ANYONE will see a glowing review (or a negative one) AND LOOK FURTHER. No one will just rush ut and buy, or stop thinking about it if they have any interest in it. They WILL continue and find other pro or nay articles and threads. Or MAKE a new thread asking..
SO IMO the whole controversy is now a moot point.
