If people want to read in more than one language, using a more open system is inevitable, there's a limited amount of time you can switch a kindle between the .com, .de and .fr sites.
The Amazon UK store seems to have a good selection of books in other languages. I strongly suspect, though, as you suggest, that the number of Amazon UK users who want to read non-English books is extremely low.
