Both devices have locked down OSes. The only difference is that the Kindle allows you to sideload to your heart's content and the Nook is partitioned.

Understand, I prefer Nooks to Kindles. I think from the hardware standpoint, Barnes and Noble have usually been ahead of Amazon. But when comparing the two, be honest.
I imagine unlocking the DRM to be able to do that though is tedious to say the least. Also, after so many years, I have little interest in converting all my files to mobi
