Yes, but that was due to geographic restrictions which previously had not been enforced. They aren't allowed to sell certain books to certain countries due to the publishing agreements. WH Smith enforces the same restrictions on ebook purchases now too. Frustrating, I know. There are loads of books that I would like to purchase from the UK ebookstores if it were allowed.
