Regarding this particular kind of content (chess, or other apps and games) their policy makes no sense at all though. Much of this content is produced by Amazon themselves (so no distribution rights issue here), and much of it is completely free. There is no sensible reason why they limit distribution of such apps to people in the US only. To me, that looks like a classic case of "All men are equal, but some are more equal than others."
