What do you attribute the demise of Borders Books?

Will borders.com, the web based business be the only remaining remnant of Borders remaining?

I understand Barns and Nobels is close to bankrupcy itself, do you think that the company will wind up in the same position as Borders?

What about other US books stores such as Book A Million, do you forsee any of them going out of business?

Do you see a possibility of Amazon becoming the only electronic book store in business?
