While I was looking around for a nice grocery list application in the iTunes App Store. I noticed a lot of poor ratings for some applications. There would be a comment like "x.xx is too much for this sort of application." It was apparent that very few of these people had actually bought the application they rated poorly. People who have not purchased an app should not be allowed to rate it. A rating by person who has used the application is much more valuable. I can make my own subjective opinion about features vs price. I don't need everyone else clouding the ratings with their subjective opinions. Now commenting on the price is valid. This is valuable feedback to the seller.
I think Apple will have to do something. The whole rating and comment system has the potential to be a war zone. The iPhone applications compete with one another in a much more direct way than the songs. I'm just waiting for some developer to promote their application in their competitors application's comments.
