An interesting point from the news story - it looks as though Amazon has trademarked the term "Earth's Biggest Selection(TM)". Probably a good move on Amazon's part - in that it essentially allows them to use the term for marketing purposes, whether it is true or not. I know that recently, Amazon stopped making the claim that they had the biggest selection of books (they, in fact, did not). But this new trademarked term begs the question - biggest selection of what? Everything? Sounds a bit like "Greatest Show on Earth".
