Perhaps you should be asking yourself why you aren't charging a different price for a guy in China that makes $250 a month?

Give him a $2.49 rate and I am sure he will pay it. But he isn't going to shell out 1/10th of his monthly income for it... Americans won't so why did you think the Chinese would?
No shit.. consider this as well.. right now the vast majority of sales are US based... 330 million people.. sites are designed to cater to that market now.. i.e. high BW connections required... China (ok, selling porn to them is difficult) and India, 2 BILLION+ consumers in emerging markets... but they can barely even get the sites to load...
