We published the piece with PS Audio's knowledge and their permission to
use the passages quoted verbatim.

No, you are not. The sad reality is that everyone in the audio industry
knows who the bad apples are in the reviewing community, but readers are
either ignorant, seem not to care, or direct their suspicions in the
wrong direction. Personally I am sickened by the "pay-to-play" ethos that
is becoming endemic in the publishing industry and I felt that Art's
humorous approach worked well at signalling where we stood on this issue.
