What I saw most interesting is the open assertion that Amazon has *over* 60% market share. Add in B&N's 27% and that leaves precious little for Kobo (allegedly 7-8%), Apple, and the Adobe client states like Sony.

Less interesting but more amusing was the basic premise that "as B&N goes, so goes US Publishing" and that a B&N failure would wreck backlist sales and leave Publishers pushing grocery carts in the streets.
Riiigghhttt! No golden parachutes for that crowd?

Spin me a new one, NYT...
