A9 Gives You A Discount At Amazon

In more A9 coverage, my experience with the engine so far isn't very positive. I bought a bunch of books Wednesday, and decided to use A9 to find them. I searched for 7 books, and 5 of them gave me irrelevant search results, even though I was searching with the title and author's name. This was with the Books tab of A9. No matter how good the personalization features and goodies are, Amazon needs its internal search engine for its site to work right, otherwise its just going to look bad. I'll have a full review after some more tinkering with the thing.
