As far as innovation is concerned, Ebay and Amazon are two of the most polar opposite companies on the web.
Amazon started as an online book store. They now sell consumer products, media, tablets, payment services, computing services, content production, logistics, supply services, drone deliveries, etc.
On the other hand, Ebay started as an online auction site. Since then, they have... bought the payment processor that most of their customers used.
The only other category leader that has possibly been more stagnant than Ebay is Craigslist.
