Two more reasons why I'm not interested in the Fire - music and video. I don't buy songs and I don't buy/rent videos. Pretty much kills both of Amazon's services. If B&N ever provided such services, I'd pass on them also.

Music on my MP3 player is provided by my CD collection and FM radio. Music on my internet devices is streamed over the net. With that much free content (I already own the CDs), there's really no reason for me to buy music again.

As to videos, I no longer buy them nor do I rent them on a per title basis. That said, I would be open to a paid Netflix-type streaming service; provided the content was large enough.
