In-line with those "sweet deals" between inet companies to have premium space on their sites - like Barnes & Noble agreeing to pay AOL $40 million over the next few years to be the premium book seller. How much business will Amazon, B & N and others halve to do to pay off all the ad costs? How much of these deals actualy results in transfers between these players, little net revenue and zero profits (or losses)? The only positive result might be that Amazon insiders can buy a new vacation home. So far AMZN is holding up pretty well - no sell-off on high volume . . . yet.
