There's a lot of trolls. I tried to set them straight with a deeper review though :)

Nice review Mr Haugen, as is the one left after yours.
Amazing that this person is still so bitter after all this time.

I'm amazed that there are people that takes time to write such bad reviews when they've obviously not really tried the application at all. What's the point? iTunes is not exactly my favorite app, but even if there's announced a new version I don't give it a 1 star rating without a good reason (just an example. iTunes is more like a 3 :)). People who have nothing but bad things to say, and does it with bad arguments..... They loose in my book. Somethings also very wrong when a application gets nothing but 1 stars and 5 star ratings! I hope people understand the reason.

This trolls should be hunted down and driven out of the forest in the middle of a sunny day.

There's about 4 trolls as I can see. Starting with this review:

Undesired Username

Rating: 4
Reviewing 12.0.518 (Jul 1, 2008)

Don't install this particular version (i.e. build 518)! Per the owner of JRiver: "build removed as a precaution -- possible data problem" (that is, possible data loss/corruption with build 518).


And it goes downhill from here:

Undesired Username

Rating: 1
Reviewing 12.0.526 (Jul 28, 2008)

Wow--Try being a loyal user for years, and then having ONE serious problem. Good luck getting support. You'll get snotty-assed responses from the owner, who knows hardly even the basics of how the application works.



Obviously he tested a bad build on a live library :) That makes you think more about backups and waiting for stable versions before you install it on you're main HTPC. CyberDoc999, Second Shadow and emanresU deriseD follows closely after that. It might as well be the same person. No obvious way to find out, or report anything though.

You gotta love this people.

Please keep the discussion polite and respectful.  The person in question obviously reads.  He's not a bad person.

Thanks for the nice reviews.

I'm not a member, and if I click the "See all reviews" link, I do indeed, see all reviews, not just the 5 star fellows, which is, of course, the way it should be, for any review site, for anything, be it computer software or blades for my razor.
