Borders Books opens in New Orleans

http://stream.publicbroadcasting.net/production/mp3/wwno/local-wwno-794026.mp3

Borders Books is about to open a new outlet in the former Bultman Funeral Home on St. Charles Avenue in New Orleans. It is a neighborhood where independent bookstores have thrived over the years.

As in many communities across the country, this opens a debate about the pros and cons of how national chains and local businesses compete.
