You know, I can see and understand B&N's reaction.

I use Amazon for a lot of stuff (I just spent about $200 on things last night) but I think it's shortsighted to exclusively give your business to one place. I have a $139 Nook (phone app, too) and I read my Kindle on my Evo Shift. I chose the Nook based on the DRM stuff because if I'm gonna pay the money, I wanna use more than a single device. There's a lack of business sense when you take away the brick and mortar stores, too. I know you could buy the physical GNs online but the thing is a lot of people still don't have all the modern tech conveniences, or want them. And it's stupid to cut off the B&N supply since it's the largest chain where you're more than likely going to sell a few books, especially right now. DC's in the middle of an event. Why in the world would you cut off a supply like that? Dumb.
