When I moved to Australia and setup iTunes, I was shocked and pissed off at the price bump. Yet one more reason to subscribe to alternative methods of music acquisition. To add insult to injury, the AUD has recently been at par or stronger than the USD. If the prices were reasonable I would definitely buy from iTunes. But it's not, so I won't. Simple as that.

- ajtaylor 15y agoIndeed! And Australians are quite aware just how much they are being ripped off now that online purchases from non-Australian retailers are becoming more prevalent.
