made my visits to the local Borders frustrating and eventually meaningless. Couldn't get new books written by New Mexican writers. Couldn't get any music or dvds if they weren't on the top 20.The Borders and Best Buys have cut back on music inventory so much, I just order on-line without even bothering to see if the new Van Morrison is on the racks locally. The 2 Borders in Santa Fe fill up the aisles with remainders and trinkets, paper products and towers of teen vampire books, little room for mid-list, let alone back list titles.
The CEO getting a bigger share of a shrinking pie is one more example of what's been wrong with American business culture for a long time.
