"I seriously don't understand why people don't just like reading that much"<p>Although the article mentions Amazon, it doesn't bother to even entertain the possibility that a bricks &#38; mortar bookstore is unnecessary.  Furthermore, I find browsing for books on Amazon to be a much better experience than standing around bookstore shelves.  Clearly, some people have a strong emotional attachment to bookstores, but their apparent grief seems over the top.
