Your example is related to regional protection and I understand that DRM is larger then copy protection. The vendors feel it is their right to digitally manage the region that the software can run in and they are open about why they are doing it.

I don't think that Amazon would claim that it is their right to restrict competition and something that their DRM is designed to enforce.
