I find this whole adobe thing very confusing. If you are saying it's simply a matter of borrowing the book on my computer (directly from the library with specific software to do so) and then transferring it to the Nook, I can live with that. But is this PDFs only, or ePubs only, or both? I'm not removing protection and running scripts and a bunch of other stuff just to get the book on the Nook, am I (ha, that sounded funny).
And ADE is available and free?
I just need some clarification. The library thing is a deal breaker for me. I don't mind paying for some books, but my reading historically has been go to the library, check out 7 or 8 books, read, return. If I can supplement some of the buying with borrowing that would be what it takes to get me to (gladly) convert over.
ETA: some of the things I've read from the forums have made it seem like B&N is actually working on a proprietary DRM with Adobe...so there is the existing standard DRM Adobe has, but that B&N is doing something to their version to make it different. If that's the case, then it could very well mean no borrowed books period (if the ability on the reader is only to read their "proprietary" DRM).
Again...I find it all very confusing.
