No, "2." is the worst. This way not only people get the impression it's
obiously okay to buy at A.'s (if WP links to them nothing can be wrong
with A.), but also some readers will intentionally buy there believing
that's a good way to support the WP project.
4. Link to them, make them pay, add a link to
<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/amazon.html> and let the informed reader
decide for himself. ???
Adding such a link could be a way out of the mess.
