I have never had nook for PC crash at all. Not once. Never. Been running nook for PC on Windows 7 for a long time.

Part of that support Amazon has for Kindle for PC is to create new versions which are not compatible with the DRM removal tools. The Windows 8 version is one such version. We are just lucky that the DRM tools are able tow rok with the current desktop version.

Not everyone has a Kindle. Some use the apps, some strip the DRM to convert to read in a different format. So you cannot say that Amazon has a download button because for a lot of people, there isn't such a button.
