Stuff that I consider intrusive -- to my uses, anyway, which is why I stated it subjectively. The book I bought only allowed me to download it via the Desktop, and when I synced my reader it installed changes. For instance, a permanent tile on the home screen for "Recommendations" -- I can dismiss it, but as soon as I reboot it's back, and I can't dismiss the specific titles it recommends, just as with the recommendations on the new Desktop. The book itself appears in my Library, but if I remove it a placeholder entry stays there anyway saying it's "in the cloud". Ditto a new tile on the Home screen, which like the "Recommendations" can be dismissed but reappears if I reboot.

None of them disastrous, but I find them annoying, and they use up screen real estate I'd rather they didn't.
