Actually I've never seen an "MN", usually it's an MA (Arts) or MS in nursing. There is only a slight difference in that there is more of a science based perspective in the required courses. A Master's is a Master's, and there is really no difference in the jobs you can get, it's all based on what your degree focus is. If you are going for NP, then you will be going for MSN - at every school I've looked into anyway. In 2015 aDoctorate of Nursing Practice will be required as minimum education level for NPshowever, so keep that in mind.
MAs are often seen in educator or leadership focused degrees which are more theory or liberally based, but honestly it could be either MA or MS.
