That is incorrect. There are three ways a totally internet-based company can make a handsome profit.

A) Porn.
B) Sell their company to a larger company
C) Sucker the public with a flashy IPO.

Other than that, there are no internet-only companies of any consequence making a PROFIT.

Not amazon, not yahoo (subtract their interest income and they are still in the red), not CDnow, not anyone.
