It was a broad generalization but the gist is that B&N stores are being supported by people who don't realize they can get the same book cheaper online....but of course, more and more people are realizing the pricing online is better so eventually B&N stores will decline to the point where their big box capacity no longer makes sense...as what happens with Borders.
