Here's mine, to be censored in the next minutes (5 stars):
This product is a commercial re-packaging of an excellent free software,
which comes as a copyright violation.
It will include no support, will become obsolete as soon as the genuine
thing gets updated, and things will get worse when the sellers will be
prosecuted.
Get the right thing, get POV-Ray!

Well, it seems that the good old license problems come under another
light here.
