A web host / grocery store has no taste and should not be disrupting the entertainment industry.
It's time that we start trust busting these trillion dollar giants. Amazon needs a break up.
It's totally unfair that they subsidized all of that using unrelated business unit profit, displayed marquees on Amazon boxes and on the side of their delivery vans, and shipped all of our production crew jobs over to developing economies. US film production is in shambles because of Amazon.
I don't see a monopolistic hold on the media from Amazon that would justify this. Anyone can produce content and put it out there. I agree they're not a good steward and they pretty much ruin franchises, but their right to do it is just that. Now if there is evidence that they're taking a substantial amount of business away from everyone else and you can prove they have a controlling hold on it, i'm with you on breaking it up.
