"Amazon feedback comments for authors"

I noticed on Amazon that alot of the supposed good books - "Top ten best sellers" and others have been slated by their readers. Is it the case of the proffessional moaner making an effort to comment whilst the more laid back happy reader does not bother to record their thoughts as he/she is too busy getting on with their life.

Are their comments valid I wonder and does the publisher/agent look at them and pass on the criticism to their clients?

Also does the bad feedback affect sales of the books?

I know John has said publishing is subjective but what do you think?
