Reviews should be used to review the story. I have no problem with reviews being used to point out problems with typos and the like, as long as people are willing to go back and revise the review when the problems are fixed. I do have a problem with people reviewing a product based on its lack of availability or price.
Price is subjective so giving a one star review to a book because it is above your price point is not fair. That is out of the authors control.
As long as I have been alive the hardback came out first and 6 months to a year later the paper back came out. I don't remember people giving one star reviews when the hardback was released because the paper back version was not released at the same time. The Publisher gets to decide when books are released and in what format they are released. It is inconvienent for us but so was waiting a year for books to come out in paperback.
If there are a ton of typos make sure to let Amazon know. They will refund your money and let the publisher know.
