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.

    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.
