The bookstores are dead. Amazon won. gg.

But people still enjoy going in and looking at books. And drinking coffee. And doing book signings, and poetry reading, etc.

So, bookstores are good too.

That’s why Amazon should buy them. They should become the bookstore interface to Amazon. They could even sell a bunch of other top-selling items that Amazon sells.

Thoughts?
