From the Wall Street Journal Voice:

WSJ_Host presents the speaker with question #93 from grudolph:
John, Backtracking to Amazon. The 10Q shows that their fulfillment costs
exceeds their gross margins. Therefore, without greater gross margins or
reduced fulfillmen costs, profit is impossible. Are you sure this is a viable
business model?
JHagel says, "I'm not prepared to comment on the details of Amazon's
economics. More generally, I think there are opportunities to improve gross
margins and to reduce fulfillment costs as Amazon builds scale."
