Personally, I would avoid any DRM scheme that requires any sort of authorization by device, especially if it was linked to the OS installed (I have heard of people running linux getting in trouble with ADE for updating their OS).
I don't mind the B&N system quite as much, but even there, there can be problems. I recently downloaded the B&N app on my android phone and later purchased a book over their website and downloaded it to my computer. Later I tried to download the book to my phone and now the book refuses to open on the phone. I know I can get around this problem, but for people with less technical background, I can see it being a real problem.
