It should be mandatory for both the reviews and the items be marked as such or members can just review and resell items ad nauseum.

> Once enrolled in Vine, Voices may request products from thousands of brands selling in the Amazon store which are shipped to their doorsteps at no cost. They then use the products and provide insightful reviews that reflect their honest and unbiased opinions - positive, neutral, or negative. Reviews of a product ordered through Vine appear in the same location as other reviews. Amazon Vine reviews are distinguished with this special badge "Vine Customer Review of Free Product" for full transparency.
Sounds like such an obvious conflict of interest to me, it's in the employees interest to leave reviews that make it more likely for someone to buy that product, what other reason could there be?
