You don't have to hack anything. I can use my phone and/or PC to get and read ebooks from B&N, kobo, Sony, Amazon, Harlequin, Samhain, Carina, Baen, etc. etc. etc.
Now, I can't put the DRMed Kindle books on my nook or vice versa without stripping DRM, but anything ADE-compatible does play well with the nook/kobo/sony/ADE-DRM compliant indies/DRM-free whatever. But the "walled garden" is the customer's insistence on/preference for using one particular brand of e-reader, not the BOOK. Customers are picking the garden(s) they prefer.
