More doom & gloom on BN from
The Digital Reader
Quote:
Barnes & Noble has decided to get serious and do something about the bungled relaunch of its website. The retailer has appointed Frederic Argir as chief digital officer ...
A hundred bucks says that he is the hatchet man who will be tasked with shutting down the Nook platform ...
And what with B&N already having announced that they were giving up on the global ebook market, I think they have telegraphed their intentions. Had B&N intended for Argir to save the Nook, they would have kept the international Nook Store just in case he thought it was salvageable ...
The Nook is doomed. Get your ebooks out while you still can.
