If you are a Nook customer, keep a very close eye on this situation. If they don't get the ship righted soon or sell to a viable competitor, IMO, you could eventually lose access to your Nook ebooks.

In my own case, I have stopped buying ebooks from B&N. I have downloaded and stored my Nook ebooks independently of my Nook and any B&N computer program.

Finally, I have began using Calibre http://calibre-ebook.com/ to organize my ebooks from B&N (and anyone else I buy from.) There is a learning curve to Calibre (along with making Nook ebooks usable for readers other than Nook tablets or Nook PC programs.) But for me, I felt I had no choice. I had purchased nearly 90 books and didn't want to lose access to them if B&N closed ebooks for good.
