So. I think it's morally questionable to "travel" to save money; an author (or his estate) is entitled to cut the best deal he legally can. But when books are unavailable in the US, I find I can square my conscience. Even as far as authors' rights go, I figure some money is better than none at all.
Kobo Canada sells the Davies novels and I've tossed my paperbacks. Make of that what you will.  |
I've never bothered to take the time to work around geo-restrictions (because I'm lazy), but I don't have any issue with it if the book is unavailable in your region. I've been tempted to do so for a couple of the books I mentioned up-thread that are available in the UK, but not here.
You could have resorted to piracy, but you didn't.
