That's the trouble with a medium that can be read in 15 minutes

We went to B&N when looking for comic books for our eldest. We figured they'd have more "child-friendly" versions. As it turned out we ended up going to a comic book shop an hour away becuase it carried a wider variety and the proprietor knew just what we were looking for.

B&N might get DC to change their mind eventually, but in the meantime, B&N is sending people to the competition. If a customer asks for a digital copy, the answer is "I'm sorry we do not carry them at this time". Then answer any follow up questions appropriately. It really isn't that hard.
