I can certainly see Amazon starting to eliminate some direct competitors I've used such as buy.com, e-bay, or getfeetwet. The internet allows us to comparison shop so well that Amazon will have to price match to truly cease all my non-Amazon buying.

I had a horrible (
horrible) experience with Buy.com not long after they started up. I never forgave them for it, and will never ever shop through them, or recommend them to anyone.
Yeah .... I know .... holding grudges = bad thing. I'm working on it -- but not with Buy.com. They totally lost my business completely and irrevocably.
