        @crgc @WSJ more interesting if more granular - “books, mags, videos” v diverse.

        @harkaway That was partly the point of my RT: books only a portion of the small books etc category. 'Big picture' view not so big for books…

        @WSJ @asymco this is why Amazon's PE is so high. Lot of room to grow.

        @TechBhurji @asymco So far, they have only figured out how to increase revenue. Why do you think they will figure out profits?

        @TechBhurji @asymco Examples? Meaning, similar companies that for a decade created little profit before "figuring it out."

        @EthanMarkowitz @asymco high PE is a mandate from AMZN investors to go & eat up this huge market.AMZN will make money some new way.(Adsense)
