Amazon has helped me 'invent' things. I cannot deny that getting components in 2 days for mere dollars has been very useful.

This cascades as I then provide value for people that buy my later inventions.

Sure I can use digikey, but it takes 7-9 days to get parts for a reasonable price.

While Amazon has gotten worse in the last few years, they still have crushed the established standards for shipping.
