And this is mainly because of the legal acts that apply to digital IP in different countries (or lack thereof).
Yeah, those things are understandable, but I still think they should be a thing of the past. Surely the only reason international rights exist is that the logistics of publishing on paper required localisation. That shouldn't matter any more (at least not so much - I know many books are re-edited for different markets, translated, etc.)
