Methinks they are secure from myriads of potential new customers now.

I've been thinking about this. If this was some other store it wouldn't matter but this is B&N not some small ebook store. It's always been Kindle vs Nook. If we let them get away with this then more stores could follow this pattern to where you will be left with app or device reading only.

Right now you can sideload but I am sure this is only a step before they fix it to where you no longer can.

In other words: if the ask for a shitstorm give them their harvest.
