"All of the world that isn't the USA" isn't exactly Mars.
You initially said "the Kindle platform is easily the best e-book platform that money can buy." It isn't this for everyone. So I added relevant qualifications and information - especially since we don't know where the OP lives. I'm not quite sure why you have your back up about it.

Unless you are happy with circumventing protection schemes, then all of the stores are basically useless for the "free as a Unicorn prancing in the fields of green" crowd. Egregiously unfair to single out iBooks.

iBooks DRM is uncircumventable; Kindle and ADE DRM is trivially easy to strip. That's not me capriciously singling out iBooks - it's the current state of play. I don't care much about unicorns, but I care about whether I'll be able to read my books on my next device, whatever that may be.
