Maybe it's because I like to review stuff (and on this forum at least, much to people's annoyance it seems haha) I've always appreciated reviews.

I've hated that attitude of 'well I want to make my own opinion!'. That is fine, but in a world where nothing is for free it's useful to have reviews so you can make the best decision for yourself, or at least assume the best possible choice for yourself. It may turn out to be completely wrong, but it's still cheaper over all than simply trying every damn thing that even slightly takes your interest so you can make up your own mind.
