MM, You are right about how the internet will change all our lives, I just don't think AMZN or any other company will take all the business! The birth of the TV was suppose to put the newspapers out of business and both are doing well. Still very very happy I have naked calls sold on AMZN, and if I were long and too hard headed or as William would say cemethead to sell I would sure be selling covered calls on my position to lower my cost basis in the stock!

One more thing, there should be no time and no distance in internet. Every people in everwhere at anytime can access and make transaction. Everyone everywhere anytime can access and make ONE HALF of a transaction. What about the other half. Delivery? Going to a kid's birthday party tomorrow. Gee, I can log on at anytime and buy a toy for the birthday party. Shame I won't be able to hand it to the kid at the party, but I'm sure he'll appreciate getting it in the mail a few days from now. Gosh, I got a fever and diarrhea. I need some medicine. I can log on at anytime and buy some medicine. Shame I'll just have to sit on the toilet for the next two days until it arrives in the mail. Hey, I need this textbook to look up some stuff for my work. Gee I can log on and buy it. I'll just do some other less important stuff for a day or so until it comes buy. Gee, I'm hungry. Gee, my pet is hungry. What's wrong with this picture? And this is just ONE problem with the model you are espousing for Amazon.
