And since the vast majority of ereaders used outside the US are epub devices and furthermore the libraries in Europe work on epub this is definitely something to consider as you say.
So, it would have been more considerate and easier to either ask for the location before jumping to conclusions or give the full information.
All in all the prejudice shown by assuming everyone just has to be in the States just added to my prejudice.

Then isn't it hysterical, that the one and only peron who did not give both sides is you yourself?
Everyone else had to jump all over you and point out that while outside the US you are correct, within the US there are Kindle loans. You however went ahead and started assuming that the only people out there are non-US citizens.
