if i were amazon, i would actually push for the opposite argument, as a compromise, if i had to - i would convert amazon into a brand product, and throw the third party sellers off the site.

i'm just thinking this through.

i'm a musician. is this going to mean i can't sell my own product on my own website - that i'll only be able to sell other people's music?

would a grocery store be unable to sell it's no name products on it's website? will walmart be unable to sell it's house lines on it's website?

it just seems fundamentally backwards. if amazon is going to sell anything at all, it's own products and services ought to be the thing that it sells, not the products and services of others.
