Could Amazon Buy Borders?

Rumors are circulating that the bankrupt bookstore chain Borders is up for sale, but no one wants to buy it. The Wall Street Journal posted a story which reported a rumor that Borders was “in discussions with a potential bidder for more than 225 stores”. Bloomberg News reported a different rumor that same day that B&N was interested in 10 stores, but that’s not the most interesting rumor.

Amazon has supposedly put in a bid for those 225 stores.
