New Customer Video Reviews Let Amazon.com Customers See Products in Action
Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) today announced the launch of “Customer Video Reviews,” enabling customers to use video to share their opinions and demonstrate the use of products on Amazon.com. Customer Video Reviews are located within the Customer Reviews section of items in the Amazon.com catalog. For example, check out this video review in which Amazon.com reviewer “Anjana” shows the Fisher-Price T.M.X. Tickle Me Elmo toy in action.
