Agree slapass!

Only my but also think the US market has damaged the "value" of front-end prices and it's kinda spoilt.

There is far more individual signup value from a surfers outside the US - especially when you offer payment in their own currency.

Simple example - Publishers often price books in multi-currency and e.g. a $39.95 book can be priced at 39.95 in UK pounds and same in Euros. There is a vast difference between 39.95 UK pounds and $US 39.95 - currently a difference of around $35.78 extra.

There is also a geographical perception of what a sufer expects to pay. $19.95 is nothing to a Euro surfer - it's the cost of a packet of cigarettes and some loose change.

I'll roll with the currency basket any day!
