For CD's, I guess people shop AMZN for convenience.

Price may become an issue with large orders. For small orders, the shipping negates the savings. I presume that AMZN is trying to attract customers who think their time is valuable. Saving them time, and having an immense selection is supposed to be the big attraction.

I have spent about $300 on CD's in the last few months, mostly at AMZN. I did some comparisons to the competition. I see AMZN's music business as a work in progress. I couldn't find any one music site that was consistently better than the others. Which means that AMZN's music success may be happening because they already have the eyeballs from the bookselling.
