Lucky for us the situation is not as simple as that. The right of a company to sell or not sell what they want went out a long time ago when the government found out the actual ingredients of many of these products.
Most of th entertainment world is also governed by rules.
Amazon's position on the internet and the money they can toss around might cause them to be considered a monopoly and arbitrary refusals could be considered a restraint of trade.
