(NECN) - Are you thinking of buying some books this holiday season? Maybe you'll visit an independent bookstore like President Obama and his daughters. Maybe you'll skip the browsing and use an e-reader instead. Maybe, one day, Amazon.com will deliver books to your door by drone.

What changes will he make to the company and its supply of one million books?
