With $6 billion in market cap, why did'nt Amazon.com buy Ingram? Surely the investors would have welcomed the move toward more "bricks and mortar". Amazon's early success was in a relative vacuum. Now competition should be allowed to develop along logical lines. Tell that to the FTC - we want free, cost competitive markets to develop, not ones constrained by an Amazon love fest. They can buy their books from Ingram or develop their own distribution networks and publishing empire. If that costs a lot, so be it, Ingram, B & N and others have had to foot the cost of that development in open competition and Amazon should not be a protected darling cow. --------- Time for bulls to buy more Amazongonenutty.com stock: Go Amazon.com!!! Upward to 133!!! Go, Go, Go, rip 'em up, tear 'em up, higher, higher!!! } ; - )
