Yep, I think it's just a natural progression. The mom and pop stores went belly up due to the big grocery/dept. stores moving in and now just as the mom & pop's before them things are changing again to a more online model. One of my local grocery stores (Pick & Save) now allows you to go shopping online and you can either pick up at the door or they can deliver. Who'd have guessed that would happen some 20 yrs ago? People want to have convenience without having to navigate crowded aisles. Amazon is just riding the wave of innovation I think.
