Funny, a lot of people are starting to notice that a lot of business have one price for USA, and another much lower price for the same item in other countries. Microsoft is trying to sell its software for way less than it does here in Asian countries. Regionalized DVD's, the below article mentions prescription drugs. What next? How long will consumers in the global economy put up with it? Very interesting.
