That blows. I would argue that if you're going to allow an eMag that you offer the same kinds of things you could do for a hardcopy version (i.e., printing a page or making it easier to copy). It kind of makes me regret my subscription.

Ummm...yeah. Talk to the publisher about that.
It's not like B&N is dreaming up these restrictions on their own. The industry, in general, is thinking of ways to monetize, protect, and restrict content. Each publisher has its own threshold and rules they are establishing.
It's easy enough to cancel a subscription that doesn't satisfy. Go the extra step and email the publisher and tell them why. It may go unheeded, but it certainly couldn't hurt.

Oh absolutely. I'm not saying B&N is. I understand where it's coming from. I'll give it a shot and email the publisher.
