Great production values, etc etc - but my one comment: No itunes? I prefer to watch content on my "pocket TV" (As i've now christened my ipod) - unless i'm missing the link to download and watch the video outside of the website. Fully understand concerns about copyright etc that a company the size of B&N might have -but really, putting excellent content out there and then locking people into one destination to view it is only going half the way to really socialising the content.
