Most of the more popular alternate app stores (Amazon, Slide Me, etc.) aren't on Google Play so can't be installed on a Nook HD/HD+ without hacking since you can't sideload and even if you can install one from Play it won't work AFAIK since you need to be able to load the actual apps from the store which is like sideloading. No idea about all other reader apps, I know the one I've tried (Kindle, Kobo, Moon+ Pro) were compatible, but there are/were other various apps in the Play store, but not marked as compatible with the Nook's (even though they work fine) so still would need to be sideloaded can't say if there are some reader apps that fall into that category or not. Of course other Nook models (Tab. Color) can't sideload and don't have Play access either.
