i disagree,

there will always be a market for specialty book stores and the B&N brand has a lot of familiarity. What they need to do is just scale down massively. Forego with the large shopping mall-like stores, just a 1200 square feet store in the 100 most populated cities in the US. Put a small corner for coffee and cake inside it, and you're done.

It's not rocket science. Bookstores across Europe managed to survive by adopting that formula, so why not B&N?
