How to Transfer DRM iBooks to Nook Tablet Effectively

Q: As a birthday gift, I got a Nook Tablet from my grandmother, since I really love to read e-books on iBooks Store.

So problem is coming, is it possible to remove DRM and is there any effective way to make iBooks available for Nook Tablet?

Created and marketed by American book retailer Barnes & Noble, Nook Tablet is all-in-one device, which is not only an eBook Reader but also a media player. With featuring the world's most advanced VividView 7-inch display, Nook Tablet is powered by Android OS with 16GB internal storage. Plus, it features a MacSDHC slot compatible with cards up to 32 GB in size. If you have this excellent Nook eReader, you can read thousands of eBooks on it. But when you use it to read iBook ePub files, you will meet the same obstacle like mentioned above. Now, let's talk about the best solution to convert DRM iBooks to Nook Tablet for reading.

Why We Can't Read iBooks on Nook Tablet

Therefore, to make iBooks readable on Nook eReader, you should remove DRM protection from iBooks eBooks and convert them to Nook Tablet compatible formats.
