I don't think it's misusing the system though. There's nothing in Amazon's rules that would lead me to think these reviews aren't allowed. Furthermore, I don't feel any particular responsibility to fellow readers via Amazon's reviews. If they wish to pay me per review, then maybe I would. Also, the review police are voting the "real" reviews up, so anyone who actually clicks through to read the reviews and ignores the star ratings will get a "real" review. If someone bases a purchase exclusively off a star rating system that anyone with a login can vote on, then there's really no help for them anyway.
