Look, this is not to say that this sale automatically guarantees the destruction of library ebook borrowing or Amazon's Kindle, but we've seen this kind of thing before.
B&N didn't announce they planned to take Fictionwise/eReader's DRM scheme and then close the best ebook site previously known. Amazon didn't announce it tended to restrict the Mobipocket format to only Amazon devices and then close that site. It happens. Corporations have long term plans they don't announce to the world when they buy/takeover/merge with other companies.
