The problem is they are making things so secure these days they no longer work!
I've had four Nooks, over the years. I carry my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook everywhere and use it for everything.

But I stopped buying books from B&N when they disabled downloading books from their website. Yes, I can download books to their PC reader, but I can do the same with Amazon or Google Play.

I will not buy a book if I can't control the media file. Baen and the independents have always made this easy. B&N used to be easy, too. When they stopped being easier to download files than their competition there stood being a reason to buy from them instead of their competition.
