They are trying to become the starting point for B2C eCommerce.

Nothing wrong with this ambition. I think zShop is a good idea. But I also think that people are irresponsible if they actually never open their minds and think a little bit about the implications of this New Metric of Bezos which I satirized in #79255. People might give AMZN the benefit of the doubt in regards to the new metric if the company was executing its business plan. But they are not. Same store growth was declining at its last measurement. Customer growth is less than expected. And now the New Metric.

Give me a break.
