I hope we can find another method to download our books.

If you haven't downloaded all of your books yet, I suggest you do so before the 29th.
Now that my panic is gone (I still have quite a bit of $$ in B&N gift cards!):
can someone with a bit more technical understanding than I have give his/her two cents on this? With the little bit I know, I don't actually see why Nook for PC is supposed to stop functioning based on that announcement. I mean, B&N stopped support for it quite a while back.

I'd appreciate any further info. Thank you!
