It's always good to see Amazon doing its best for for those who helped it become so successful.  Makes me want to rush out and buy from Amazon.  |
What is going on with that company? Within the space of a year they've gone from the first place I'd shop for many different products, to the very last place I'd bother with. Every new announcement and news item from them seems like it's geared towards annoying and alienating as many people as possible.
