You're right, it's not related. Still, it takes a bit of legwork to migrate your library if you're registering and buying from these platforms (I remember having to downgrade my ADE, installing Calibre add-ons etc).
Speaking of that: it's been a while since I did that, but last time I checked Amazon was making it harder to de-DRM stuff bought from them? If so, that'd be another reason for me not to want to register (if I were a newcomer to ereaders).
