I'm referring to day one of the NOOK Classic's release. Weren't sideloaded books treated as second class citizens? It didn't display sideloaded book covers in the color LCD, sideloaded books not part of main library. This aversion continued with the NOOKcolor originally not allowing sideloaded books on the home screen. Now with the Touch you're forced to look at ads on the home screen for their books.
They don't intend to support metadata. At this stage, it's obvious. That's a sideloaded book thing to them. Also, they don't really like the library books thing. Doesn't even display how many days until book expires. The Sony does.
