No - there is typically a blue button next to each book purchase in one's library that allows for an Epub download, "protected" by Adobe DE. On more and more titles, as I look over the forums, there is no Epub download option. But you don't KNOW this until after you've parted with your money.

I don't even want to think about a new third DRM ingredient (B&N, like Kobo, has a proprietary, non-Adobe DRM scheme locking their epubs.) Never seen that.
