Yes. Of course, no one else would have come along and sold books cheaply on the internet if Amazon hadn't been so uniquely evil.
Technology moves on and you either find a way to adapt or you end up out of business. The challenge is figuring out if there's a way to integrate your core values into the new reality. You will never be able to stop the clock. I believe that there is still a way for us to preserve a more personal reading community and even local physical reading spaces without trying to confront tanks on horseback. We just need to rethink the business.
