Gst i think Amzn is a sleeping giant and i'm not about to downplay the risk here or hype the stock and yes it's a bitch at times, but Amazon may now be getting paid for the eyeballs that arrive their for buying instead of giving away money by selling products of their own for cheap and advertising like mad. And this has been the hook, give it away and build it for the masses then whammo businesses start paying them huge sums of money by selling products of there own, imo. Mark, The firms using this format are really "junk" firms for the most part. This is an opinion to prevent litigation:-) Quality firms will be online on their own. This includes: Zales J C Penneys Sears Wal-mart Ford Celluarone etc. I believe this will dilute the Amazon name and be detrimental long term.Note the names of the firms of AOL's shop the web. They are screened prior and pay a lot more to be there. Glenn
