    Good. Of all the big tech companies, Amazon is most in need of breaking up. They own:

    • eCommerce
    • Advertising
    • Delivery (delivered by Amazon)
    • Product Creation (kindle, kindle fire, etc)
    • AWS. Cloud infrastructure—the monster in the room and most likely to be broken off.
    • Content. purchase of eBooks, music, movies, etc
    • Publishing (eBooks)

    I hope they do get broken up as well as the other big tech companies. It’s the best thing for all of us, the consumers.
