UPDATE: A quick view of the DP Review YouTube channel indicates that Chris and Jordan have something in the works for their own thing... I'm sure it will be as good as usual.

I have a good idea. We can sell cameras. To get customers we will build a review site with "BUY" links to our store. But, don't tell anyone that we own the review site.

Chris and Jordan can just do their own monetized YouTube channel and probably do OK.

I had no idea that Amazon had anything to do with them. I didn't see their price listing at the bottom as anything other than a choice to go to buy. Since the whole web is loaded with advertising, I didn't see that as anything special. I've always bought at sites where I could get a good price and Amazon has been good for me since I don't have a very wide market to choose from locally. B&H, Adorama, KEH, and MPB are my main locations for gear and probably always will be. DP Review was for getting info on a product.

They didn't build DPReview. They bought it. I don't read DPReview any more since Amazon bought it.
