If they want to keep Vine (essentially monopolizing paid reviews), then at least give me the option of filtering them out with a checkbox or something.
Agreed. I would like the opportunity to filter them out. I read an article once about people who spend most of their day reviewing products, even products they never purchased. I sense these are the types that get invited to Vine.
In my experience, the Vine reviews have always been clearly marked in bold green text at the top—while you can't filter them from being displayed, it's pretty easy to ignore them if you want to.
