Sorry to hear about your hassles. It really shouldn't be this way.

I had just started downloading my B&N books, when they changed their policy. I don't remember now what prompted me to start downloading them. Something alerted me to a possible problem.
These companies (that voluntarily make customers' libraries disappear) know that what they are doing is sleazy. When they inform customers, they sound sheepish about it. I wish that I had made a recording of the one or two guys at B&N who hem-hawed around about the fact that, yes, I no longer could download my books from them. Anyway, I wrote what they said in a post on MobileRead back at that time.
