I don't know Alomex, I seem to remember seeing something like that and not understanding why. Take Bill Harmond off ignore and ask him. I can't decipher amazon financials, I can do the simple straightforward books but anything huge and complex like big companies or amzn I won't be able to find the hidden issues.

Is it still non-current pay (non-cash) interest? Don't recall how long that lasted, but didn't think it was this long.

I'm no financial statement wizard, but I'm guessing it's
part of the difference between pro-forma and GAAP. As I recall,
the debt has below market rates so there's not much
incentive to pay it off sooner than necessary. Longer term
the debt has stopped growing like it was through 2000.
