I think the Amazon factor is probably even more telling outside the US in some ways, as it negates the significant edge Kobo has in being the only one to offer library borrowing, a difference that would at least partly offset the size advantage of the Kindle Store. But prospective purchasers probably don't hear about that because of the brand recognition of Amazon, and the assumption that bigger must by definition equal better
