Is this SE spam?

http://www.google.com/search?q=site:...f&start=0&sa=N

There are a huge number of subdomains, used here, some link to specific related reviews, others to the main index page.

Taken by itself, I don't think that is spam. It looks like actual hand written text and not script created junk content.

Now, if they have repeated the same text on several domains, the SEs would look at that as spam.

But from the 4 or 5 pages I looked at, I would say it's not spam.

It's a bit spammy to me (using 6000+ subdomains and 5 similar review pages that ranks for sitenames) but unfortunately, almost every page indexed from that domain has useful content on it so I'd call it aggressive SE optimization (instead of spam) combined with unique content..which is probably how any multi-paged site should be designed.

Subdomains other than www shit me to tears... the sooner google cracks down on them the better imo.
