When they become ONLY store, the prices will go up. Until then, I like them and will use them.
While Amazon has contributed to the demise of certain brick & mortar book stores, Barnes & Noble killed the independent book stores in my city a long time ago.

A monopoly means that they have no competition. They have lots of competition, therefore it is not a monopoly.
