All small bookstore owners are in it for the love of books, they sure aren't there for the money (and I speak as an ex-bookstore manager) and this is certainly not a recent development due to ebooks... the repeal of the Net Book Agreement started the serious closures of independents in the UK once it became impossible to make a profit on bestsellers...
