B&N is trying to emulate Amazon, of course.

You really do not know what you are talking about.
It is trivial to purchase Amazon books from other vendors. You don't even have to sideload; you can e-mail them directly to your Kindle. Moreover, once you've done this, Amazon will sync it on all of your devices, so you don't lose you place when you switch from your e-reader to your tablet to your computer.
So please stop talking about things you don't understand. Amazon is not Apple, and, again, putting e-books from other vendors is as simple as e-mailing. There is no "conversion" necessary.
