And as spiderplant says, the store is not owned by VM, so there is no conflict that impacts on them

I wasn't aware VM didn't own the VM store (Thanks Spiderplant) but I think that makes the situation worse! VM will risk upsetting a business partner if they allow Amazon PPV.
Of course we're not privy to contracts so for all we know the guys that own VM Store only signed PPV exclusivity for a set period of time.
If Amazon PPV does indeed arrive it would be interesting if there is any 'price fixing'
