I know someone who is about to launch a very niche "box of the month" type service, where a box of items are mailed out each month. This would have been great as she could just have an amazon subscriptions page and a static website that links to it.

But no, it's for "digital app, website, or software" only.

Why would I go to amazon.com to sign up for dropbox? I'm not getting it.

Because you, like a few hundred other million people, were already on amazon.com and it was recommended to you.

I like that it centralizes payments, like PayPal. So I wouldn't have to have 10 different websites who all want to store my debit/credit card info themselves.
