Amazon derives a lot of value from the reviews on their site. They can put people who are skeptical about a product at ease and lead to a purchase, for example.

If hesitation from bad reviews was a substantial blocker they would have addressed it by now.

I was talking about hesitation from no reviews, i.e. no "objective" source on the quality of the product.
