Right, it's the same thing that region coding on DVD's and DRM and the like are for. It's to give the corporation power over everyone, author, artist and customer alike. They want to tell *YOU* what you will do, think, buy, say, etc. Trust me, I run into this all the time in the tech world. Concern for the customer has pretty much gone out the window, and it's totally reached a point where it's for the corporation by the corporation, and nothing else.
