They nabbed 0.6% of market share. It's barely noticeable.

Uh... Indie stores gaining 0% increase in share, when 17% was up for grabs due to the Borders bankruptcy, is "help"?
Online sales grabbed 10% more share in 2011, and another 8% in 2012. It could stabilize, but if that trend keeps up, the physical stores are in for a lot more pain.
