That's why you can still order a pbook from Amazon to Australia even when you can't buy the Kindle edition of the same book from the same publisher. The contracts allow one but not the other.

It's the contracts that are the killer here.
That would be Amazon's problem though. The individual customer is not bound by the contract in place between Amazon and the Publisher.
