I think its BS that Apple allows that they can review your app before buying or downloading it!! :mad:

Isn't this how virtually every online community operates? How many of them require you to verify ownership before giving a review?

I 100% agree with you, but at the moment your in an ecosystem controlled by apple. Apple requires you to use your itunes account to leave feedback, so it would be easy for them to check if you've bought something or not, but they don't. At the end of the day if your software is worth paying for, people will pay for it. Forget the reviews :p

Then get all of your friends that didn't buy it either to put up good reviews and that should even it out. ;)
