B&N and Amazon Bullies are Fightin' it out!

Check it out for yourself:

Classic line from Big Bully Barnes & Noble:

"We will not stock physical books in our stores if we are not offered the available digital format. . . "

Classic "bully" behavior and they keep getting away with it. What next? Are they going to ask and get a government bailout when their bullying ways finally, and very soon, send them down the proverbial road Border's just went down because Large publishers aren't going to lift a finger to help bookstores the way they did during the depression.

You reap what you sow and Amazon isn't any better when it comes to the publishing industry. Exclusivity isn't the answer and neither is it part of the problem. It IS the problem. DC comics - "What are you doing?" UGH! Did we learn nothing from the IBM personal computer era?
