Pretty sure it's not allowed to limit the sale of digital goods between EU countries. It's either limited too all or none.

(Apparently) Sony has been pulling this shit for years, so either no one noticed or there's more to it. I wonder if perhaps any of these countries have laws restricting certain online services, which Sony doesn't follow, and thus is not allowed (as opposed to simply choosing not to offer)?
