Yes, I suspect that it is indeed generated from some random number, but who knows. Interesting that it's still connected to the billing name. I would have thought the key itself was a random string of the correct length assigned to the account. At least there is only one current key per account no matter which device/app/script you use to download your books. I did find another way besides Nookstudy to get the key. It requires a rooted Nook HD though.
