Does it tick anyone else off when 1 reviewer leaves multiple reviews of the same book

This happens, typically with an early reviewer and they give a very long summary of the book and then an enthusiastic 5 stars. If you scroll down you see another identical review and another 5 stars but this time they are reviewing the Kindle version instead of the paperback. It would be one thing if Amazon listed each version as a different product but since they don’t this just skews the star rating and honestly no one reviews the “Kindle aspects” vs the “paperback” aspects, it is the same darn review of the content repeated verbatim. You get nothing new, the only thing it does is push up the stars.

Grr… maybe I should have put this on the rant thread.
