I work at a Barnes and Noble store and I have yet to see a significant decline in sales - with school starting the sales are probably going up.
Back in highschool I used to devour books, I'd go through a 500 page book in a few days. With my full time work and full time school schedule I'm lucky if I can manage to read 25 pages a day. It's a shame because I can borrow almost any book in the store free of charge...
I'm trying to turn things around so I'm reading 2 books at a time:
Dostoevsky's "The Adolescent"
Kalle Lasn's "Culture Jam" (as recomended by several people in the philosophy board)
I share the same sentiments with those who'd much rather have the real book in their hands.
