If they create enough categories then all books will be #1 bestsellers.

PackBits (a kind of RLE compression)

Yikes. I bet you're right but back in the day when I converted a company to digital fax I believe the original codec was RLE now that you mention it. I think jpeg2000 was the "fast fax" codec (14.4Kbps+). It's been a LONG time and I haven't faxed a damn thing decades... I guess back to the future II got that wrong lol. We stopped using fax a year or two after that over HIPAA concerns.

My new favourite category: Children's Dystopian Science Fiction.

Or perhaps Teen & Young Adult Diversity & Multicultural Comics & Graphic Novels. There's only one book in there, but it's a #1 Bestseller!

I don't use Amazon at all anymore. However, when I did I always thought their search was total garbage. Search for one thing get another. You can execute the same search 3 times and get totally different results (try with 3 private browsers).
