Background
These NOOK devices were announced in September 2012, and later released in November 2012, offering access to Barnes & Noble’s digital bookstore, magazines, and media content.
Incident
In March of 2024, Barnes & Noble announced that they would be cutting off all support for their Nook HD and HD+ devices. This includes:
Purchasing content from the Barnes & Noble store.
Registering a new Barnes & Noble account.
Signing into existing Barnes & Noble accounts on these devices.
These devices were still perfectly usable for simply purchasing and reading content, however, support was cut off in June 2024.
