Has this been established by law or court ruling, rather than corporate fiat?
As far as I've been able to sort out, this isn't true--especially since "end user location" is often declared to be the location of their home *bank*, not wherever the end user physically resides at the moment. If they're vacationing in another country, they can buy pbooks only distributed in that country; they can't buy ebooks only available in that country.
