This is really sad.
I have to admit that, as much as I love book stores, I have contributed to their downfall. I haven't bought a book in a book store in 15 years or so. As soon as I found out about Amazon, I bought all my books from them. It was just a no-brainer since I could always get exactly what I wanted easily and cheap.
The only b&m store where I've consistantly bought books over the years isn't even a book store. If anyone is familiar with Ollie's they will know what I mean when I say it's book heaven. In a sense, books go there to die, but as a result they are giveaway prices.
I've never shopped much at Borders since I never lived near one. Crown Books was who I betrayed and they are long since gone. The times they are a changing...
