Among brick-and-mortar stores, Nordstrom -- with a score of 83 -- continues to outperform its department-store competition, including Kohl's (79). J.C. Penney (79), Dillard's (78), and Sears (74.) Macy's was the only company that lost points, as its score fell to 71. In the discount segment, Target -- with an 82 – easily beat Wal-Mart Stores, with 71.

In the online group, Netflix jumped 2 percentage points to 87 -- dethroning Amazon, at 86. Newegg fell a bit to 86, while eBay remained at 79.
