Legality aside, I'm not sure that Amazon is winning in the long run with this strategy. I mostly buy products direct from the manufacturer these days and virtually all manufacturers have high quality websites with solid ordering experiences. As long as they have the name recognition, they can either sell for higher on Amazon and take the advertising hit or just ignore Amazon altogether.
I continue to buy some stuff on Amazon. Mostly books (they're way cheaper than book stores) and gadgets (I bought a 12 volt car fan recently). The sort of stuff where I don't care who makes it.
