Customer info as an asset aside, I've never been spammed by amazon, and I
use the same email as I'm using now. I'm more worried about limiting the
number of credit cards I use online :)
If nothing else, Amazon and BN both over large pools of reader reviews that
I usually scan before buying any book. Why not be informed, even slightly?
