I'm not sure what you mean when you say "alittle more like Amazon in the
discription", but something very similar to the Amazon reviews system would
be good as long as the ratings were searchable (i.e. You could order search
results by rating). Allowing the developer to respond to feedback/reviews
would also be useful in all sorts of different ways.
