Amazon and Bill Maher go retailing

Amazon will show an half hour chat show on their website. Bill Maher will host. Many more shows like this must be coming from Amazon. Otherwise, wouldn't they start with a bookshow? Amazon hired an agent and packaged the whole thing the Hollywood way. Will Starbucks be next with a music video show, paralleling their in store CD sales? What will Wal Mart do? Possibilities are endless. But it means retail is changing. Entertainment is changing. Content is being used to market and swing the otherwise unreachable or uninterested customers. To solidify-in the rusted on customer. A lot is blurring.
