Are you buying from Kobo now at least?
People have been predicting the demise of B&N for many years, but somehow they manage to hang on. Like I said, so far I only have 3 books that I cannot liberate. I got them on sale, so not a big deal.

I am buying from Kobo now. I have not been terribly unhappy with my Kindles, but Amazon apparently has abandoned page turn buttons, so I am done with them. I currently have 4 working ereaders so I am not in the market, but I am pretty sure my next reader will be a Kobo.

Ironically, the main reason I tried B&N was because of Amazon's DRM shenanigans.

I'd sooner go with Kobo or eBooks.com.

Yeah, Kobo is usually my first choice. Sometimes I buy directly from the author if they have an option.

I should check if the B&N app I have on my Windows 10 system still works to download. If it does, I would expect to be able to remove the DRM.
