They did not want to promote other companies products, when they are trying to sell their own similar products. They do not want to offer their competition's products to their customers. They feel that if they take them off then their customers will buy their products which will greatly benefit Amazon. Also Amazon removing these products will not greatly affect Google and Apple. They are well know companies that are known for their great success in technology. Apple and Google loyal customers will continue to buy their products even if they are no longer offered on Amazon. This removal of Apple TV and Google Chromecast from Amazon's website will cause tension between these companies. However, Amazon felt that it was the best idea, so that their products would have a greater chance of being purchased, which in the long run will create more profits for Amazon.Caitlin Orohohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15260552290320259385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-943061409344261913.post-52073364236373553422015-11-21T20:18:17.338-05:002015-11-21T20:18:17.338-05:00I think that Amazon’s decision to remove Apple TV ...I think that Amazon’s decision to remove Apple TV and Google Chromecast from its e-commerce marketplace was a very strategic move to boost the sale of its own product. With the holiday season approaching, Amazon will likely be the leader in e-commerce. By removing Apple TV and Google Chromecast from its website, they are drastically limiting their competition and leaving consumers of Amazon to buy only Amazon’s fire TV, which from a business standpoint, is a very effective move. By doing this however, Amazon is “waging war” on Apple and Google, and from which Google is being hurt the most. With Amazon entering the TV market, ridding itself of competitors is a great way of putting its product out there and increasing its sales.Andrew Toronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05776926942977322700noreply@blogger.com
