conulyI can get Fly By Night on Kindle, but not the sequel, Fly Trap, unless I'm in the UK. I can get books 1 and 2 of the Ash Mistry books, but I can't get book 3 in the US. I can get The Hero and the Crown, but not The Blue Sword. I can get Heroes of the Valley in English in England, but only in German in the US.
Why do they not want me to send them money?
Ugh!
Can't even freaking pirate them because none of the books I want to have Kindle copies of (to backup my dead tree copies) are so overwhelmingly popular. Well, if they were I'd be able to buy them here, wouldn't I?
You know, when I was a kid, I just kinda assumed that America got everything first, and that anyway, we certainly got everything. Was that ever even true? With digital media especially, why can't we all get everything at the same time? Wouldn't that be the most sensible way to manage things?
Rant, rant, rant, rant.
