I could see that, if "licensing" the book was a fraction of purchasing, but it's not, and I find it morally reprehensible that they attempt to steal from their customers.

All this regional restriction crap is just another facet of their unbridled avarice.

The publisher of course would like to have world rights for the same price. It is the authors that are selling to different publishers in different regions. Put the blame were it belong!

Or did you mean that publishers should be required to pay more than they want and more then they can get back just to get world rights they do not want?
