This whole "Tied to Amazon" thing is really, really old. I think it is great that people enjoy their Nooks. Can we please discuss the Kindle vs Nook without the silly "Tied to Amazon" line. It simply isn't true.

I think what people mean and want is, less hoops to jump through. I mean let's be honest you do have to go through extra steps and processes to buy from other areas.
To some they don't want to do that, and others it may be just to mind numbling and complicated. I can't imagine my father trying to use Calibre, He still can't sync up his mp3 Player let alone use calibre.
The Nook and other Epub devices just provide a much simplier solution.
