Even if all that’s true, Amazon let’s me buy things knowing when I’ll receive it and with the confidence that I can return it (and always for cash) without jumping through hoops.

That makes it better than buying from indie sites just about every time.

I've heard that you should vote with your wallet for what is important to you.

Whatever Amazon has to offer is not worth what it costs to me, so I vote in other ways by shopping elsewhere, and should I have something to sell I will use other means to sell it.

The post describes why Amazon is bad as a small businesses selling original products, not whether it's good as a customer.
