Fictionwise has no problem selling me the books. That's why I want them to stay separate from Barnes & Noble. Canada and the USA are in the same publishing 'zone' so it baffles me that Amazon Kindle and B&N seem to be excluding Canadian customers. This whole zone thing needs to be done away with ASAP anyway, but the Canada/US thing is especially baffling because we are considered the same publishing region in the print world. This is totally a case of the companies making complications where none need exist.
So Fictionwise had better stay Fictionwise and not merge with B&N! If they do, it will be a slap in the face to all their non-American existing customers.
