To go slightly off topic..... I'm a huge audiobook fan and I've been a member at audible for about 7 years now. In the last year or so, I've noticed many, MANY more books 'not available to my geographical location'. Often times half way through a series! In the past - about 1 out of every 20th (plus/minus) book I wanted or was interested in, wasn't available. Now I'd reckon, about 1 in every 5 books. Amazon has recently bought out Audible - so I can't help but make a connection.....

That's because Audio books are more popular than ever and just like ebooks publishers from various regions are starting to pay attention to the rights they hold.
