I'm not an author but perhaps I may add my 2c all the same.
From a customer perspective ebook growth is rather held back by geo-restrictions. It is highly annoying to find an English language ebook at some shop just to be told that you cannot buy it because of some geo-restrictions.
For some inexplicable reasons Amazon seems not to be afflicted to such an extent by these geo-restrictions but it is hampered by the fact that it basically has no content in other languages than English and German.
I don't believe that many customers are willing to pay more than 100 € for an electronic device that offers no content in their own languages.
