The one thing Amazon's got now that gives them an advantage to us lazy affiliates is the stripe. They made it super easy to get a simple link to a product. If I were doing sites that focused heavily on music or books though, I'd definitely *not* be using Amazon as my anchor merchant. 24-hour cookies? Puh-leeze.
