Do you have evidence of this? I don't think Amazon is involved--certainly no signs of that from here.In the states, thousands of the initial PS3 at launch were bundled with Talledega Nights but we didn't see sales of that break the top 10 in Amazon.
Remember, Casino Royale BD hit #7 in the US, not in Europe, so I don't see how you can attribute the sales in the US to any deal in the UK. I think you need to look at the very real possibility that this is a blockbuster title on a superior format that caters to an audience making purchases online at a time when BD players are gaining increasing market penetration.
Not everyone buys their movies on Amazon. And it only makes sense that most BD adopters will buy titles online because unlike DVDs, very limited shelf space is set aside for BDs at the brick-and-mortars.
Several factors are surely at play, but without real evidence, I don't see how you can chalk up the success of CR BD to monkey business.
