Yes, you are. Especially that you've just left a specific context of copying a given video or given medical product for a very broad context of “Amazon doesn't a monopoly on making videos”, that can't be denied, and skipping the medical part.
That's Motte-and-bailey fallacy:

So if Amazon has the right to exclusively sell you video then pharma can sell you exclusively gouge you for lifesaving drugs.
Don't get diabetes in 'murica if you have the chance.
Or, y'know... We can simply differentiate between video content and medince, since it's not the same fuckin thing.
Nope, you tried to extrapolate my argument outside of the specific context which I'm talking in, so I simply corrected the goalposts.
