No you don't. Amazon did not need international licences for me to buy a book in New Zealand and load it onto my K1 using a USB cord. Amazon needed to know that I was a US resident and therefore able to buy books from the Amazon US site even when I was in New Zealand.

The international license comes into play when a US resident wants to buy a book from Amazon UK. The US resident may not be able to do so because of license issues. A UK resident may not be able to buy a book from Amazon US because of license issues. But a UK resident traveling in the US can buy a book from Amazon UK while in the US.

If Amazon US can sell books to US residents traveling in Europe from Amazon US then BN can sell books to US residents traveling in Europe from BN. For some reason, BN has decided not to allow this.
