I would like to feel sorry for B&N, but then I remember all the independents and smaller bookstore chains they ran out of business in my lifetime. We have a strong used bookstore chain in the DFW area,
Half Price Books, where I go regularly. Actually they're expanding fairly rapidly into other areas. I do go to B&N from time to time but I don't find much featured there. Shelf after shelf of
Twilight clones. I used to pick up computer books there, but PDFs make more sense, apparently, as their selection has dwindled to a few shelves.
