I think new entrants to the space have no idea how hard it is to take on amazon here. Microsoft are getting a clue fairly rapidly, Google seem to have just decided to cede the space.

Can you say more on : "Google seem to have just decided to cede the space." ?

My take on it was that Google's pride in their own engineering would not let them do that. They seem to be in it for the long haul here.
