2. is a corollary to number 1.--BN's pricing is very often higher than Amazon's, sometimes by quite a bit. I received a gift card to BN this year, and decided to use it to finish purchasing a series I'd started buying at Amazon. Every single book in the series is $2 more when purchased from BN. With five books in the series, that's $10 just wasted--easily the cost of another book or two. Owning a Nook is means your content is more expensive than Kobo (which offers discount codes) or Kindle.
This. I recieved both B&N and Amazon gift cards as gifts and I had a hard time spending the B&N card as every book I looked at was $2 less on Amazon.
