I've noticed that they have overwhelmed my library. I have switched to nookstudy on the PC to manage them, though, as that gives me "courses" which work just like Amazon's "Collections" and are essentially tags (why do they have to keep changing the name of a basic function?). It's not great, but at least I can find the ones I've paid for this way.

So despite their less-than-competence and the way they've run Fictionwise into the ground, I'm pretty happy with B&N right now. Plus they have a cute stuffed mascot bear. That always helps.
They definitely have done that -- anyone else noticed that they seem to have dropped mobi completely as a format to purchase on DRM'd books?

The bear is cute .... I'll be appeased if they just send me a free one!
