That's not the problem. The problem is they are a monopoly. Yes they have a lot of traffic. But that is because there is no serious rival. That's not good for competition and it's not good for consumer pricing. That is why the government need to step in and sort it out. They do step in with bricks and mortar stores so why not on the internet? What should they do? Carry on letting them get bigger & bigger until they wipe the floor with every single other online retailer.
