In terms of outlets that don't require circumventing, I've found kobobooks to have the most semi-decent selection, but that is still not saying much.
Back when I was deciding between the kindle or the kobo, I spent a few weeks searching through kobo (well, actually the borders australia site before I figured out it was cheeper to just go through kobo with their discount codes etc) and the kindle store and, while i did find a few books that were not available on either, I'm sorry to report that *none* of the books i looked for were available in australia through the kindle store. not one. (of course, this is just my taste in books, amazon may have a good taste filter for us aussies...). Most of them were available through kobo so I went epub.
It's so blo*dy frustrating to see all the US-ians on mobileread rave about the amazing selection of books on the kindle store. not to mention nook-ers talk about B&N. or sony-ites the sony store.
Australia - the ebook revolution. just not quite yet.
