There HAS to be a way to use nook/kindle/netflix on this dang surface RT without being forced to use a microsoft account and let them "combine" all your stuff (thereby surely dikking it all up on your other nook/kindle/android/apple devices!!).

Or am I just going to have to consider this surface device a total brick when I step out of the cockpit?
Thx
I have Kindle, FIFA 15, Age of Empires, Neflix, FoxSports, HBO GO, NBCSN, and many more. Just go to the app store and download. Yes you have to have a Microsoft ID just the same as you need an Apple ID. You don't have to have a CC connected to it if you don't want. I do because I have Xbox. I don't even carry my macbook anymore. The Surface is way better than an iPad as you can easily transfer files and add content via USB unlike an iPad. Drawback is lack of app support for RT. Just wait two years and we will have 3 Pros.... fingers crossed.
