So Much For the Barnes and Nobel Nook Lending Feature

In the post I made previewing the Barnes and Nobel Nook eReader device I mentioned the lending feature. Well it appears the lending feature is completely gimped.

Well it appears each title you have can only be loaned out once and only for 14 days. Note that the wording seems to imply you can loan a title once period, not once per person. The other strike against this feature is a book can only be loaned out if the published allows this behavior. I can officially strike that feature off as something cool.

  1. I’m going to go so far as to say it’s worse than nothing. I say that because a feature like this is insulting. Barnes and Nobel probably know people will see the lending function as a “feature” and buy the device without looking into the said “feature.” Eh, I guess it’s a good lesson for people to research before they buy.
