Thoughts on CCBill's new toy? (Caution, biz thread)

I'm really torn on the ability to bill international customers "higher" rates in their own currency because of the decline of the dollar.

On one hand, any added revenue would be nice.
On the other hand, I'm concerned that a sudden 50% price increase (after holding prices steady for years) would dissuade regular international customers (and I have a ton of them) from joining.
And on the other other hand, I'm wondering if I'm actually getting *more* international joins (I haven't tried to break that down) because the site is "cheaper" for them now and they're more willing to sign up. If that's the case, it would mean that I'm still getting the same dollar amount for their joins, just more joins, meaning more dollars in my pocket - so maybe the fall of the dollar is actually a good thing for total revenue?

Any thoughts?
