> Kis, I don't care if walmart

Walmart never had access to billions of dollars to giveaway their products in the beginning to capture marketshare.

I promise you this- if you hand me 2 billions dollars, I will OWN the entire US book industry. I didnt say for how long. But if I spend all that money and start freebooks.com, you can bet my revenues will go through the roof. Until I go bankrupt, at least. But by then I will have cashed in my options and bought a nice mansion on the lake in seattle. And a shed out back to park my used honda in, for when the reporters stop by to ask where all the money went.
