Maybe that person who posted that was getting B&N Top 100 and it finally cycled to "Recommendations based on your purchase". Again, I purchased my device in May/June (I purchased the first day it was released, can't recall specifically) and that wording was already in existence. It's not something new.

The only purchases I made from B&N were two James Patterson books. I don't know what algorithm they use for recommendations, but it's clearly not a good one. Besides the sexually explicit book there were three self-published books suggested.
