There's nothing really special about any of this though. The fact that the internet gives you a global marketplace and you can buy goods/products from other countries happens every day. Taxes, pricing, currency, etc... problems already seem to be solved relatively well when you're buying anything else on the internet.

For some reason, Publishers have decided to further complicate this with geo restrictions. Most of the arguments above don't make much sense when you figure that you can already buy "insert any other digital/physical product" on the internet, from another country. What's so special about an eBook that requires the addition of geo restrictions?
