Glenn - Isn't it simply amazing that people can extrapolate a mail-order website, that burns cash like it's newspaper , into a media behemoth of the 21st century ? These clowns act like the game is over , and AMZN has been declared the winner ! Although , of course , they've never made any money , are undercapitalized against MUCH larger opponents , are in a business with sucko gross margins , etc, etc , etc. This is getting to be a real hoot. I am starting to doubt the sanity of theses analysts and others too. Not the bulls on the thread. I did not want Mark to believe I was making reference to him. I was not. I can't recall in which report I read that buying Amazon now is like buying Walmart in 1970. Maybe the same report. This is to the point of being really comical. You are correct; Amazon has won. I should short every other media company in the world. Maybe a media index would be the best. Buy puts and write naked calls. I cannot loose. Go long Amazon, short the rest and retire very wealthy in five years. I beleive I will morgage the house too to get as many positions as possible<VBG> Glenn
