Well, in addition to the PG books, I have bought quite a few online Nook titles. They are definitely my choice for books too recent to be public domain - I just have a big interest in Shakespeare, Homer, Dante, and so forth. I also buy tons of stuff from their physical store in our city.
Your point is valid, though - although I am probably in the upper percentiles of Nook users based on how much reading I do with it, I hardly appear to them as a voracious reader if they just look at the purchases in my Nook account.
