In what market is Amazon a monopoly?
- dahfizz 6y agoBeing strict about the term, none. But "monopoly" has become a colloquialism for "big company (that I don't like)". Amazon has certainly generated enough bad faith and operates at a large enough scale to galvanize the anti-trust advocates
- kempbellt 6y agoThey are popular, efficient, and usually affordable - if not cheaper than many competing outlets, but I do not see them as a monopoly by definition. Amazon has made it more convenient to use their services than their competition in many ways, but to my understanding, there are alternatives for just about everything they offer.
