Speaking from someone who lives in both countries, I can vouch for how high the British prices are in comparison to the USA.
It never ceases to amaze and annoy me how CDs, computers, software programs, etc are priced the same in dollars as they are in pounds, even though the exchange rate should half the price for the British purchasers, the companies still keep the prices high. I was just looking into buying some Apple software, in the USA, the price was $699, but in England the price was £599. CDs are the same price in both countries, $15.99 and £15.99. Outrageous. The British are getting screwed. -----Original Message----- From: robin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Mon 3/12/2007 12:14 PM To: Thomas D.
