Listener Questions
Michelle Grant via Twitter: Do you think Nike is one of the few brands that have the leverage to get Amazon to remove 3P inventory?
Steve White: Hey guys, when I talk to brands they have this sense that they are going to be 'pushed out' or off the platform as Amazon develops products in their respective categories- my sense is that Amazon has never acted like a bully in that regard, just adds additional competition- thoughts?
Parker Block: Who is right, @retailgeek ? Are disruptive forces going to drive retail consolidation (per @debweinswig) or fragmentation (per @klobaugh)?
