The Nook Color and Nook HD+ are both tablets, not eink readers. If you like reading on a tablet, why not get another?

If you want an eink device and want to avoid Nook and Kindle, I'd suggest Kobo. That's what I moved to and I've loved them.

Sirtel has a point though. If you're downloading your books and stripping DRM, it doesn't really matter what store you purchase your books from. I buy my books from Amazon and load them on my Kobo.

However, I recently discovered that Nook Study no longer will download my Barnes & Noble purchases to my computer (running Windows 10 Pro). I managed to work around it using my original Nook Color, but the method is clunky. I am a huge fan of future proofing my purchases for various reasons. I've stuck with Barnes & Noble through all their user/consumer unfriendly changes, but I've just about reached my limit.
If you install the Nook app from the Windows 10 store, you can still download your books.

I'm not saying you should stick with B&N. Just wanted you to know you can still download Nook books on Windows 10.
