I am the original poster and I do think clubbers deserve a certain amount of respect. Clubbers -- whether they be Fictionwise, B&N, or Amazon club members) -- have demonstrated a loyalty to the particular vendor and tend to spend more money than non-club members at the store. That's the reason for the clubs to begin with -- to tie closer the buyer to the seller. And so they should be rewarded for past loyalty and encouraged to give future loyalty by distinguishing them from the non-club members. B&N fails to do so in regards to either the Nook or its ebook store.
