I've heard the ratings on Amazon can make or break you, so I think most people are at least trying to get quality by taking the ratings into account.

no they just pay a marketing company for 5 star fake reviews lol. Same on app stores.
The ratings are hilariously gamed. Vendors will use coupons and discounts to get you to leave a positive review, while negative reviews are often reported off the site or the submitter is hounded by the vendor.
I do know that people use these ratings when making decisions, but the correlation to quality is fuzzy, at best. I can't imagine people will continue trusting these ratings forever.
