Some interesting points. I can see lots used to shop at other retailers but have moved to Amazon because of cost and convenience.
But surely there in lies the danger - and don't get me wrong I am just as guilty of this - what happens when we all rely on Amazon too much, to the detriment of their rivals, who then go out of business, Amazon has the monopoly and then start to jack up their prices?
Now maybe this won't happen completely, Amazon has been around a while now and they have driven a lot of businesses out of business but they still have plenty of rivals as well. But if it did then we could be in real trouble (it's happened to a degree in the UK, Amazon have destroyed the high street bookstores here, very few left compared to pre-Amazon)
