Back in late January I had trouble downloading a couple books with Nook for PC. I then tried with Tampermonkey and got oops! for one of them. Finally got that one downloaded with Nookstudy. A day or so later I checked the Tampermonkey alternate download link for that book again, and it worked. So it seemed to be a temporary glitch, but you just never know.

Ever since the removal of the download buttons I've stopped buying from BN. I don't want to end up with a book I can't get my hands on, unlock, and use on whatever device I want. I just pick up freebies to keep an eye on the DRM situation.

BN was my store until their latest eink device was such a huge disappointment for me. So I got a Kobo. Now it's mainly Kobo and Google, then Amazon, depending on price.
