Additionally, there are plenty of places outside of Amazon or B&N for you to buy books to put on the e-reader which would keep the books out of the "lock box"
Amazon pulled one book from peoples Kindles. They screwed up, they said they screwed up, they returned the book to people or gave them to money to buy another book, this after refunding everyone when they initially pulled the book. The only other times that I have heard of Amazon blocking access to accounts is when they figured out that people did not live in the US but had registered a US address in order to buy books (1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, really folks) or when a Kindle has been reported stolen.

B&N works the same.
Go to the B&N website. Log in to your account.
Open your library and click on the download button next to the book.
