Those things translate into better financial performance."

Excerpt from Barron's -- "There's talk of them acquiring some TV networks and to get scale in content really quickly and fill in some niches because those assets have been beaten down from a valuation standpoint and Amazon has the ability to monetize them, not with just advertising, but because if they create more intensity across their Prime relationships, which are now 60% of US households, then they can sell more paper towels and more stuff to them."

Excerpt from Nightly Business Report -- "I think they are going to start seeing it very soon especially if you shop through retailers like Etsy or Wayfair. I think Wayfair is probably one of the biggest losers here. They are a site that advertises themselves as a place where you don't have to pay sales tax. Amazon is probably going to see some impact but they are big enough to be able to absorb any loses that come from their sellers having to charge sales taxes. This certainly shifts the power in the online retail space away from the smaller players and toward the bigger players."
