Slacker, Very different scenarios in my mind. The music industry needed a sensible pricing scenario to prevent people from stealing the music and Apple saved their you know whats. Apple got people to pay for something they were used to get for free, something difficult to do. I think Amazon came up with a system that made it difficult for the content creators to make money on. I think Apple helped fix the model for the content creators and wrested some power from Amazon. Maybe that is the extra value that investors see in Amazon that props up their share price. Maybe it is the monopoly tendencies that Amazon has in certain markets that is the cause of its high PE. Neal
