More than 200,000 people had canceled their digital subscriptions by midday Monday, according to two people at the paper with knowledge of internal matters. Not all cancellations take effect immediately. Still, the figure represents about 8% of the paper’s paid circulation of 2.5 million subscribers, which includes print as well. The number of cancellations continued to grow Monday afternoon.
A corporate spokesperson declined to comment, citing The Washington Post Co.'s status as a privately held company.
What are some of the things you can’t find outside of Amazon?
For me, I’ve noticed that a lot of items just seem to be resellers from Alibaba or wherever else to get vast quantities for low prices. Amazon even has it set up so that sellers can just ship from the source, so the reseller has nothing but the listing.
Other more niche items can exist, but I think they could be found. Recently I was looking at stuff for record players, and there’s a fair amount f ones on amazon that don’t seem available elsewhere, but I think it just requires searching a bit harder for longer.
I think you can definitely find duplicate ptoducts outside of amazon. In some rare cases, I’ve seen very specific products where the company specifically only sells on Amazon, but that’s of course, rare.
But what I meant is that all the options are these massive companies like Wal-Mart that definitely don’t have the general populations’ best interests in mind.

I think this is pretty niche, but 3d printer filament. Some companies sell directly (MatterHackers, ProtoPasta, etc) but the variety isn’t as good. There are just things some manufacturers that only are available in my area via Amazon
