By far the vast majority of Amazon's spending over the past two years (literally billions) has been in infrastructure, which are capital assets, not in R&D or specific product development.
The expectation is that the new infrastructure will result in both reduced (warehousing, handling, and shipping) costs and greater sales.
Amazon has been spending on increasing its ability to sell and move product rather than on specific products that need to be sold to the public. Big difference.
