> Is Battle.Net a "Store"?

Yes? I don't see how anyone could claim otherwise.

Battle.net is a store, because it sells games you can purchase, including expansion pack sales, microtransaction sales, etc.

At best you can classify it as a specialty "store" where you can get only 1 brand of item.

Steam is a store in the true sense - it stocks stuff from multiple devs. And anyone can post their own game to the shelves.
