While this has gone way beyond Amazon's 4.0 Kindle....
Can someone point out what created the distinction between the "point of sale" for ebooks (buyer's location) and those for "point of sale" for pbooks (seller's location)?
Is that the agreements between authors/publishers or was that a dictate of law or treaty or??
It really does seem crazy that a pbook can be sold and shipped anywhere while the same book but published as an ebook cannot. So international law, private contract or treaty?
