Do you think they'll eventually close their doors, and online services like amazon and such will be the only games in town?
I still enjoy walking through a book store, large or small, with a warm beverage in hand, smelling the aroma of new books.

Even Barnes & Noble is fighting a losing rear guard battle against encroaching bankruptcy. Here in Northern LA, several have closed, to be temporaily replaced by Crown books. I have to drive 20-30 minutes just to find one.
