So does Verso. Their surveys have indicated, for several years running now, that independent bookstores have a much bigger "mindshare" (23%) than actual market share (5-10%).

The PW article has a little bit more info, but not much: http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/b...oksellers.html

Apparently there's a big digital book conference in the next week or so, so perhaps after that some more comprehensive statistics will be publicly accessible.
