Sure, but the other hand, if searching for SF turns up page after page of porno and PD books, then that's not terribly useful. One of Amazon's issues, IMPO, is that they have gone from pointing you to books you might want to buy to pointing you to books that _they_ want you to buy. There is a lot they could do with search that would make it much more useful. But that's not what they are focused on at the moment.
