Do I buy two of the same? Is there a good reason to buy a Kindle and a Nook?

I've done a fair amount of research and I think I like the Kindle better over-all as a product but I could see the advantage of the Nook with regard to borrowing e-books from the library in ePub format. How easy of a process is it to convert the ePub book to a PDF or another format that the Kindle can read? Can you even do this with a "protected" file like this that you borrow from the library?

Thoughts on this dilemma?

Thanks!
