I'd love it if they did, and hopefully they'll get it figured out someday. I totally agree that they suck and something needs to be figured out. With the big disparity in pricing between the US and UK I'm not sure what the solution is. As a business it'll be hard to convince them to not enforce rights they've paid the authors for.

Does anyone else find this a little rediculous?
I found this eBook available now in ePub at kobobooks for CA$11.99 and for some strange reason I can't even locate it now at Sony's Reader Store.

This may be old news.

Wow. I'm not finding it either and I bought it (the lrx version) there. Maybe it has not been authorized for an epub version? or hasn't been converted yet?

It shows up as unavailable on my "purchased books" page.
