It seems odd that B&N would hobble their book store like this. I had a vague memory that I needed to never buy books from B&N but I'd forgotten the reason. It seems counter-intuitive for B&N to allow nook owners can buy books from B&N's competitors but prevent owners of other devices from buying books from B&N.

Thanks to all of you. I may have known all this at one time but frankly, it seems unnecessarily confusing. It seems like the publishers ought to get together and insist on some standardization. It must harm them as well as us readers.

Thanks again.
