I'm not sat there reading the book; I'll look at the table of contents, skim bits that I think might be useful, and then have to make a judgement call. With Amazon, I get the TOC, I get reviews that tell me whether the book is any good or not (which is better than a gut reaction, for me at least), and if I really want to delve into what's in the book, Google Books usually does a good job of showing me some relevant pages. I don't have time to read an entire book, nor peruse for 20 minutes. I think the people who are like that are the ones who want bookstores to stay, but those people are a very small minority.
