Some other usability observations: the hover menu system on the left has what http://uxmovement.com/navigation/why-hover-menus-do-users-mo... calls a 'hover tunnel.' "Hover tunnels are passages that users have to tunnel their mouse through to click a menu item." The Mac did this correctly in the 1980s.

I thought that the massive image in the center was be like a shelf, where you could see things they were promoting, and click on them. But if you click on an item you get an entire category (which was entirely missing for one thing I clicked on), and have to search again for the thing which caught your eye.

Oh dear... in other words, not optimized for tablets. I looked at this on my iPad, and when I pressed the menu, it expanded it, but then immediately navigated to that page.
