- jonknee 9y agoIt’s easier. I like the convenience of just going to Amazon and ordering what I need without having to think about it. When I’m in a new city for a night I could research and pick out a boutique / bed and breakfast, or I can just open the Hilton app and get a consistent room without any work.
- jliptzin 9y agoRight now it's great. Come back to this question after competitors are driven out of business and you don't have much of an option should Amazon decide to capriciously raise prices. I tend to think decentralization is a good thing even if it's not more convenient at every level.
