As I've said before you need to educate yourself great deal more on the subjects you are posting. Amazon will make profit from the thousands of books, movies etc that will sell to HIS OWN users and buyers. So even in this madness there is very sound business logic explained very well in the article itself. have you read it or you just enjoying posting web links and using valuable web band on someone else expenses? (peachparts in this case)
The same with cars, the sum of all the parts put together is about 60% greater that the selling price of the car.
I hope that you not working in business planing, because clearly you need more info for a start
PS. On the side note, do you have any other life than constantly posting here, thread after thread with useless information?

Where's Aklim? This sounds like his area of expertise.

This is pretty common with hardware like these. It can take a long while for the manufacture to produce them without taking a loss; as time goes on the components get cheaper and cheaper.

Apple does the same thing:

This is why I'm using an unlocked iPhone with music not bought from Apple and either free apps or ones obtained via Cydia. Because I like Apple hardware but hate the company, so I enjoy being a (small) drag on their profit margin.

As a man who tries to develop 'winning' business plans I salute those that come up with a winner.

That's the Gilette plan. Give away the razor for free but sell the blades.

[sjh]

I'm trying to find mine (business plan) for my next venture. It'd be a pleasant surprise if in 3 years you see a headline sjh business finds way to make profit while selling at a loss.

Same with printers and even video game consoles to name a couple more.

[Kuan]

A few years ago didn't some company give away free computers on the condition that you used their interenet service?

You sir are part of a very special elite.

I thought dumping was illegal? Isn't a form of anti-trust?
