Amazon bans sales of Apple TV and Google's Chromecast

Analysts said Google was likely to feel more pain than Apple as a result, as Apple sells products through its own stores, but there could also be repercussions for Amazon.

"As a retailer, I want to give people a reason to come to me. When I take out best-selling brands, I take away those reasons."
