"To fix the geographic distribution idiocy" .... "it's who gets the money for the book on the publisher's part."
The idiocy makes customers angry. It results in fewer sales. And probably results in a more accepting attitude towards piracy.
Also GOUGING. Other than taxes, why should an eBook cost more in the UK than the USA? (OK, I'll accept additional editing for grammar, spelling, and usage - but not much of that really gets done.) These policies result in constraint of trade and in smaller markets, monopolistic behavior.
