I liked this comment from an author on Agent Kristins blog:
Quote:
As a writer, and being aware of this problem, I made sure, when I signed the deal for my book, that the publisher had world English rights. I urge other writers to talk to their agents and publishers and make sure their ebook is available around the world. As Francis said, readers don't give a damn about legalities or how much profit the publisher wants to make. As writers, we need to take some responsibility and make sure our readers can read our ebooks if they want them.

Now if more writers thought like this the problem would be minimal.
