Quote: I also think it's weird to compare Amazon to WalMart (WalMart is terrible), or DPReview to Consumer Reports (I find CR to be useless).
I was comparing for different facets of the metaphor. I meant, Amazon and WalMart are both large retailers which have a financial interest in whether certain products do or don't get purchased. Consumer reports and DPReview were known for being impartial reviewers of products, and were not influenced by sales or advertising of the reviewed products.
