10/07 13:55 Amazon <AMZN.O> falls on new competitive alliances

PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct 7 (Reuters) - Shares of the online book and music retailer Amazon.com Inc fell sharply Wednesday on new concerns its competition could be heating up.

CDnow Inc <CDNW.O> and N2K Inc <NTKI.O>, two of the biggest players in the online music retailing space, said earlier in the day they were discussing a merger. On Tuesday, Bertelsmann AG <BTGGg.F>, the world's biggest book publisher, agreed to buy half of barnesandnoble.com, the online division of Barnes & Noble <BKS.N>., the largest U.S. bookseller.

Amazon's shares were the biggest declining stock on NASDAQ Wednesday, falling 12 to 96-5/6 in early afternoon trade.

But some analysts said they thought the stock was oversold.
