What's A Bookstore For? We Have Amazon.com

The other day I went to a large, magical place that had thousands of books, but I didn't specifically need any of the books on display and the books were placed in random order on shelves... And nobody in the store knew anything about books nor could they tell me exactly where to find a book. Yes, I believe historians once called this place a "bookstore"...! My discovery the other day proves that not all bookstores have been replaced with clothing stores. Still, what is a bookstore for? Convenience. We have the selection and pricing of Amazon.com that seems to outweigh the convenience though.
