@pwalker8: I do not have the problem with first page Google showing exclusively sponsored ads. If I don't find what I need on first page, I will adjust my search words more specific until I do. Remember ask.com? You could ask sentences. Google can do that too now. Appears to give better results sometimes.

Amazon showing too many Indies for your taste? Well, that is the advantage Amazon has over other stores with much more limited selection of books. Maybe the new Apple Books store would align better as a discovery tool for you.

By the way, I always chuckle when after a marathon search on Google and Amazon ads pop up about it everywhere. Say, I am researching new lenses for my camera. For the next week or so I see ads left and right about lenses. And I hear about it too from my wife: "You been looking up lenses." "How did you know? *insert big grin*.
