| their web site.  But I'm cheesed off about the mailings--enough so that one

| because I want notification of shipping, etc.  They have completely lost it
| with regards to ethical treatment of customers though.

I just went into "my preferences" (or whatever they call it) on Amazon,
and it is, on the contrary, entirely possible to tell them to stop all
communications *except* those regarding shipment details|tracking.
