Candle, Actually, one could read the NYT article many ways (I got the hardcopy, which may vary somewhat from the one you posted). One of the things I noticed was that AMZN appears to have a much greater breadth of sales than most traditional bookstores. If they really develop that type of market well, it could turn into a very nice niche, which retail-mass marketers might prefer not to pursue. Whether that type of market is ever going to be worth the kind of valuations being paid for the stock is still a question. Very clear though, that competition is coming, and that the road ahead will not be easy for them. mg
