Default Pricing Rip-Off in the UK

Well, the rip-off continues, especially if you live in the UK.

In the US, this upgrade costs $599.

In the UK, it is £478.

Spot the problem? At current exchange rates, $599 = £388. That's 23% more than in the US.

Does it really cost £90 more for a download version to go to the UK? If so Avid really need to speak to their ISP.

Just because the UK has the nickname "Rip Off Britain", there's no reason why you should exploit it.

AVID - PLEASE SORT THIS OUT NOW - YOU ARE NOT WINNING ANY FRIENDS
