Amazon has to do something to turn Alexa into a viable revenue source

All of this type of language is so misleading, it absolutely does NOT have to turn into a revenue source - at a restaurant you might lose money on the steak plate, but you make 20x your cost of the salad plate AND THE RESTAURANT'S REVENUE ACCOUNTS FOR THE ENTIRE FUCKING MENU COLLECTIVELY.

Sorry, Snapz, we're discontinuing steaks to keep our restaurant stock value going up.
