This whole equation changes when the technology to do reasonably-priced (by which I man affordable to an independent bookstore owner with financing) on-site print in demand finally makes its way to the mainstream.
I know that my store will look and feel very different indeed when we finally have a machine that can crank out finished books to sell to folks instead of needing that work to be done in China or whatever. Especially if it then allows me to do reasonably-cost small print runs for creators themselves. The business of printing is something that I really hope gets democratized to the same extent that the business of design has!
