Not only such, amazon allows all writers in the area directly check book sales, and encourage writers and readers' mutual communication, need not use any professional book review member, you can take a rather obscure novels easy to fight a bestseller.
This is the amazon in the publishing industry of major attempt, inevitably and the various publishing company happening direct conflict, make it become the big press competitor, and these publishers was it the most important suppliers.
