An interesting answer, despite fact that I was referring to cheap internet books as the cause of the loss of bookstores, not Kindles. But, allowing the subject to be changed, no-one who switches to ebooks can excuse themselves from the guilt of the local bookstore's closure. Buy paper locally and the store stays open. Not rocket science.
Change hurts; the least we can do is accept our complicity in the pain - especially when the main reason is so we can have neat new gadgets.
