Please explain what the difference is between the usual claim "Amazon is losing money" and this. You seem to acknowledge that reinvesting in the business is not a loss, but then you say reinvesting this much is?
Sounds like the same claim you preempted and said was nonsense, except you are better because "there's a difference"?

I suspect this new may have something to do with Amazon giving Hachette most of what it wanted.

As stated above, I think you mean S&S.
But you negected to mention that in addition to Amazon giving S&S what they want, S&S gave Amazon what
they want...
This is a magical concept which exists in Fantasyland. It is called "compromise".
Hachette of course lives in the real world.
