It has to do with geographical restrictions, or something like that.
That shouldn't apply to the U.S they are saying it's because of Piracy I think it's all about the money. The holidays are coming up and nearly everyone's gonna get a ereader and they don't want them using the library because it's a lost sell to them. Look at the timing. Right before Christmas.
