I'm not an expert, but from reading through this thread, it seems that B&N would have been much better off if they had just:
A: turned Fictionwise into their online store, simply using Ctrl+F to slap their name over anything that said Fictionwise
B: focused on eReaders rather than tablets
They turned their latest (last?) eReader into a Kindle-clone, but they have nowhere near Amazon's ecosystem. Without the physical page turn buttons, ergonomic design or SD card reader, why should anyone purchase a Nook over a Kindle?
I continue to use and love a Simple Touch with Glowlight, but I manage it with Calibre and stopped buying books from B&N when I lost the ability to yank the DRM off of them. I wonder how many Nook readers like me are out there?
