I often find myself doing the showroom thing with BB and traditional bookstores - but I typically do not go to the brick and mortar store on purpose to look at stuff. I am usually out with friends or visiting other stores (say, at a mall) and happen to go in. So if BB bankrupts, I am not going to feel particularly affected, because I usually go direct to Amazon anyway. (Prime helps with that motivation)
