>>Just knowing revenue for a specific product line is impossible.<< gdr, please explain. a decent database should make this easily doable. SB, It is very doable. My point was Amazon does not provide the information. Amazon claims that this information will decrease their competitive edge. I really doubt providing how may dollars in book s they sold would help a competitor.

>>Just knowing revenue for a specific product line is impossible.<< gdr, please explain. a decent database should make this easily doable. yes, amascam.con - the most ethical company in the history of the country. ;-) SB, You missed my point. My point was not that it is impossible for Amazon to know the revenue from a specific produt line. As you stated, that is easy to determine. I was saying that the information released by Amazon to their investors makes knowing this impossible. In other words, Amazon is making no effort to inform their investors. Glenn
