BnN got this. The marketing was you could (and still can?) walk into a bookstore and browse to your delight and purchase the ebook version right there in the store. That was a HUGE deal, IMO, when the Kindle was first scrambling for market share and absolutely not something Amazon can compete with. Kobo had/has something similar with Chapters in Canada.
