John,

I agree with much of what you say. I do think, however, that Amazon differs from Yahoo in what it might gain by getting big fast. I think Yahoo is going to maintain customer (visitor) loyalty much better since many people will view their service as good enough and have no need to look elsewhere. Amazon, however, will have to compete with every other book and CD seller on price for a large part of the market for the lifetime of their existence. There will be some who just bookmark Amazon and never bother checking prices anywhere else as well, I'd imagine. Hopefully for those of us that are short, the latter number will be relatively few.
