With an eReader and all the places from which to download content I can't see myself going into a bookstore without some other sort of incentive. It isn't like some other items you can also get online where you want to see and touch them, with books you can do all the research online.

The only time I can see myself going back to a bookstore would be if it was a book I really wanted to keep and it was not available as an eBook, even then I would be more likely to borrow it from the library and then wait to see if an eBook version came out.

B&N with the nook has an advantage in that they can tie the nook into the stores and give people a reason to go to the stores for extra content, freebies, and such. The independent stores however cant do that.

It will be interesting to see what sort of promotions they come up with to get our business.

I don't know about "better" but it sure sounds painful
