Bill,

There is a New York Times article that agrees with you as do I. The entire article is good. I am quoting this one paragraph due to its refernce to Amazon edging into profitability. I am not always negative;-)

nytimes.com

"The dot-com bust has left the economy littered with the husks of companies that said they would transform the way that people work, live and play. But aside from such notably profitable Internet winners as eBay and edging-into-profitability giants like Amazon, it is not easy to find many pure Internet companies that make healthy profits without appealing to baser interests or using questionable business practices. Even huge companies like AOL Time Warner appear to be struggling to figure out — still — how to come up with online content and services that mainstream consumers will be willing to pay for."
