Since I'm a customer at any place that is a combination of bookseller and ereader device seller, anyone who buys and sells anyone, goes bankrupt, or whatever, is going to generate mail straight to my inbox. While Borders was disintegrating, I got plenty from them and then from Kobo when Borders moved all of its ereader accounts over there, and now I'll get more from B&N. Since at this point (Nook owner) I do get semi-regular email from B&N, I have to say that most of it is simply purchase confirmations. I could remove my name from what they got from Borders, but I'm kind of curious to see what they'll do once they get rolling. Maybe there will be a freebie or two in there - quien sabe? Anyway, someone was going to buy those lists and Borders' liquidator had every right to sell them. Some of what was netted on the liquidation will go to pay all those publishers (and thereby authors) who were hurt by the Borders mess, so that's fine with me.
