Why does Amazon sell books at prices so low they lose money? Cheap books are a loss leader that devalues books to drive competitors (bookstores) out of business. This helps Amazon gain market control, leaving them with near-monopoly power.

My pandemic hobby is checking in on @Bookshop_Org to see how much money they've raised for local bookstores so far. Not even two weeks ago, it was at $19,000. Today it's at $205,000 and counting. Seriously, I just refresh my browser and watch people buy books in real time.
