Ah France, the land of contradictions, but mostly political posturing. My excellent, French, local, FNAC* store, competes spectacularly well with Amazon and often undercuts them on price - certainly for electronics and probably for books too. This law is probably going to hurt them as well and may ultimately be to Amazon's benefit.

- bambax 13y agoMmm... no. FNAC is not excellent, doesn't compete "spectacularly" -- or at all, is laying of hundreds just this week and in general is a horrible place to shop.
- LBarret 13y agoFinancially, Fnac (online or not) is really ill and may die soon. It could have been a successful competitor but it rested on its laurels. In any way, it is worse than Amazon. If a store deserved its fate its Fnac online. It is still sad.
