Okay I did a bit more digging and it would appear that this magazine only views the book via images with a DRP app instead of the usual book reader (I had a feeling since the interface was different but wasn't sure). I found the images to the book in /data/books/nameofmagazineinquestion. In that folder (which you need root to find) is all the images to the book (all pages converted to images). So it is in two pieces, the epub and the images/pages themselves. Rather odd method to not even have the images in the book file? I also didn't like how you can't zoom in enough in the DRP app. You could zoom but not enough for my tastes. They advertise "high resolution" but I got a different issue as a pdf (also no DRM) direct from the publisher's website and that has much better resolution and I can zoom in further. Very odd B&N couldn't do better.

Well they could, they just chose not to. I am just going to dump the subscription from B&N and go with a direct subscription. Cheaper, and the quality is better. I liked B&N and the nook, a shame they can't get their act together. I would have stayed if I could have archived the magazines easily and they were all in one book file not as a bunch of lower resolution images in a folder. While I could stitch the images together into a PDF, the quality would still be less than what the publisher offers. :/ I don't know why they just didn't offer the nice PDF or the choice. Granted on the surface their DRP method looks fancy, but it does not have the resolution. And they even advertise high resolution.
