There is another player in the ebook market, who has experience with physical content sales and who has a lot of retail presence too, even owning their own brand stores. This player is struggling right now because they seem to have lost their place. B&N has a better momentum, but they lack the financial muscle that this player has.

I.E: What about Sony? Do you see them making a move to add B&N's content and selling expertise to theirs?

BTW there is another consequence of this event: it makes Amazon's statements that they're making a profit in the devices less credible.
