Nah, I'm fine with his decision.
If I want it, I'll find it either on Kindle for a 1/10th of the store price or just hit up a torrenting site.

Harassing a manager who knows his regular business because you dont agree isnt really cool. JSoup is right, those books he puts out with that general knowledge on it are very expensive for whats there, so get the kindle version for a 1/10 of the cost.

You're fucked up. The author of the book is here promoting it, trying to make a buck off of his book, and you insult him by threatening to illegally download it from a torrent site that won't help him out at all. He's not a large corporation, just a guy trying to make a living with his passion that is similar to yours. I met the guy in person at CGE 2014 and bought his book. He's a really nice guy with a great book. Show some respect.

Welcome to the internet.
If it makes you feel any better, the likelihood that I'd do either thing is pretty low. From the reviews I've seen, the book is interesting, but nothing I'm jumping for at the moment. Very much on my black friday/holiday sale list.

Meh. Until B&N expands to rural locations, it doesn't affect me. Not trekking across a ferry boat to pay retail price for books.

Ferry ride eh? I won't trek about 5mi from here to pay full blown retail or higher. I wont' go into a B&N unless I kind of am forced to being with my wife who likes going into that place for magazines. I really wish they had died and not Borders, they sold under sticker price and did weekly coupons, it was like a slice of online pricing without the wait.

Sadly, that's part of what caused Borders to die.
That and, you know, not paying the bills.
