Tl;Dr: If you don't use Amazon, you maybe shouldn't write an article about Amazon.  |
I agree completely. The Amazon haters will always try to put it down, but I'm seeing far more reviews, recommendations, and tips about new books than I ever got from the "old way" of going to the bookstore, I'm a lot more informed now about the type of books I want to read, and I buy a lot more now, too (Agency 6 excepted). Maybe some day the others will figure out how to sell and market, but who knows...
