Why should I pay 90% higher ( US$ 94,99/mo x US$ 49,99/mo) to annual subscription in Brazil?

Why should I pay 90% higher ( US$ 94,99/mo x US$ 49,99/mo) to annual subscription in Brazil?  I am releasing a web dev. biz. so please help.
We understand a price plus due adobe brazil technical marketing and products support but 90% higher?  As you know we also have exchange rate problems so please help us offering a better price.

Hi SILVEIRA,
The explaination I have regarding the price difference is this
Adobe decides the price at which it sells its product on the Adobe Store.  A number of factors influence our regional pricing including local market conditions and the cost of doing business in that region.  Please note that resellers are free to decide at which price they sell Adobe products, which can be less than the price on the Adobe Store.
We establish our prices for Creative Suite products in U.S. dollars, Euros, Yen, British Pound and Australian dollars on a regional basis using a consistent methodology. Local market conditions significantly influence our pricing – these include the costs of doing business in different regions and customer research that assesses the value of the product in the local market.
We conduct the majority of our business through our retail and licensing channels. We depend on our retail partners in local markets to help us reach as many customers as possible, support those customers, and much more.
As stated, the cost of doing business in the rest of the world is higher than in North America. That higher cost is reflected in some of our pricing and would remain no matter how customers chose to purchase. For example, customers will still read about our products through local press to whom we reach out; they will meet local Adobe sales people who conduct seminars, participate in user groups, and visit large customers; and they will rely on support resources that Adobe makes available in these markets. All of these efforts impact the business costs of securing the sale, whether that sale is delivered online or in a box.

    I bought 3 films and none of them had subtitles or alternative languages: why? I paid full price (like a dvd) without the same options. Why should I pay the same price? What I want is to change languages or to have subtitles (Kung Fu Panda2 and Rise of the Planet of the Apes and SpongeBob).
    Pease tell me.
    Best Regards

    You can't change languages in any of the movies offered in the store. Some movies have subtitles but it is in the same language as the movie.
    Depending on what country you are in, you may get movies in that countries native language.

    iTunes Store Movie Rental FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
        * If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
        * If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

  • Why should I pay 3.5 times as Much Aperture in Switzerland in France?

    Why should I pay 3.5 times as Much Aperture in Switzerland in France?

    If you have the option of which to buy, of course buy the cheaper one.
    As to why the prices are different?  Are all Swiss apps more expensive?  Are there taxes in one country and not in the other?  There is no inherent reason why prices in one store should be the equivalent in another - almost no product is so.  Why would or even should they be?

  • Why should I pay?

    I noticed a drop in my broad band speed from the usual 1.7Meg. When I ran a speedtest, it said 1.2Meg.  I contacted BT who told methat an engineer had been in the exchange and done some work that would affect my speed and that if I wanted an engineer to fix the problem that HE had caused, I would have to pay.  Why should I have to pay BT to fix their own mistakes due to incompetent engineers.  As I refused to pay them to fix the problems caused by their stupidity, they have refused to send an engineer.  I will now be canceling my contract and not paying a cancelation fee as I am only canceling due to the fact that they are totally incompetent.

    Here are the stats from my router.  I noticed that my attenuation has increased and the modulation has changed from G.DMT.  This is something that I cannot change so must be caused by the engineers work in the exchange.  Since installing the router over 6 weeks ago, I have not had a single disconnect apart from when BT India told me to turn it off and then turn it on again (the only fix they seem to know).  It is possible that it was a language problem, but the guy I spoke to refused to send an engineer to the exchange unless I agreed to pay a fee, he did not say that this would only be chargeable if the problem was in my property.  As for being greatful for this pathetic speed, if BT Openreach had connected me to the nearest exchange, I would be able to get around 72Meg (thats what the houses 200m from me get), but they didn't connect me to the nearest or even the second nearest, but thats all in another thread.

  • Why should we pay for software updates

    i know that nokia has turned to providing software updates on the internet. But based on my experience if someone has to update their firmware and is not under warranty they hav to pay for the update !
    wait a second, i payed(read : invested) in a nokia phone and it dint even work properly for one straight day & to sort this problem(which started by me doing nothign but buying a nokia phone) i have to PAY for an update!
    this means i as an investor am wrong? i should not buy nokia phones?
    YES
    because as a corporate business nokia doesnt have the decency to correct their own mistakes.
    This is unethical business practice.
    PS: i bought N73 from dubai and am in uk as of now, so cannot use the warranty to get a free update- but cmon its not my mistake that the software has bugs, nokia should take its responsibility.
    i regret buying a nokia

    Nokia do sell phones all over the world, this is correct. But one thing you miss here is that they do not sell the same phones all over the world.
    Phones sold in the US are for the US market, so this could mean they are CDMA in design, use such technology as BREW etc. Phones sold in the middle east and in APAC will also cater to the needs of this area, such as chtml and imode as well as different menu structures and character sets in the phones font.
    Creating a support network that can repair a damaged phone or updgrade a faulty phone anywhere in the world would be a bad thing. For one thing, the cost. If such a service existed this would be passed on to the end user, this would mean customers in the US who never leave their country would be paying for the support services (even if never used) for a customer in China who regularly travels to Austrlia and may need a firmware update or repair done anywhere in between.
    The only thing Nokia really needs to address is hardware repairs. It would not be beyond the realms of reasonable to have a hardware repair service at premium for imported phones (people travelling could wait until they arrive home or mail back to their country). However the update system that Nokia now has in place on the Internet and OTA simply means you do not need to go into a shop to update your phone. You either connect to your pc or just start the update from the phone itself.
    One final note, no one pays for the update, you only pay for the service. This is why OTA updates are free (apart from the data charges) and so are Internet updates (apart for the monthly charge etc) Message Edited by karym6 on 15-Dec-2006

  • Why should I pay for upgrade to CS6 twice?

    Dear Adobe,
    I upgraded from photoshop CS3 to Photoshop CS5 last November as you said we will be not able to upgrade from CS3 to CS6 directly anymore. And now, you changed your mind and users are still able to upgrade from older versions. If I would wait couple of months like others I would pay only once. Please, would you try to explain your business strategy? How should we trust you are not going to change your mind and rules every month?
    Thank you for your explanation.
    Kind regards,
    Filip Zamorsky

    And...Add my name to the list. I began another thread but I was told about this one. It's the same story as you all, I'm just not going to be ignored by customer service. Adobe caused the problem, Adobe should fix it.
    Has anybody found a magic way to get customer service help? I have been waiting since last Tuesday for my problem to be resolved and I've been getting absolutely no understanding or willingness to take ownership of my problem.  I have chatted online with 8 different people. Each time making painstaking attemts to explain the situation as being different than the "free upgrade" window that is posted on adobe.com.
    Here is the situation.
    Adobe said that we MUST upgrade to CS5 in order to upgrade to CS6.
    In February, I upgraded from CS4 to CS5 based on item 1.
    I went online last week to upgrade to CS6 from CS5 when I saw that I didn't have to spend the money to upgrade from CS4 to CS5 afterall.
    Based on that, I feel I should be able to upgrade to CS6 without having to pay an addition $199.00.
    Adobe said I had to upgrade so I did. That cost me $199.00 three months ago.
    Now Adobe wants me to spend another $199.00 to get CS6.
    I will not do that. I wouldn't have spent the first $199.00 if Adobe hadn't said it was necessary. It wasn't necessary afterall so I shouldn't be penalized for believing Adobe.
    This is like the guy who's told he has a week to live so he gives away all of his earthly belongings. Then the doctor tells him he didn't mean it. 
    Now, On Wednesday, I got my request elevated to "concern group". They will contact me within 72 hours. That must be 72 business hours because I have not been concated.
    So, Monday, I had to go through the entire scenerio for the umteenth time and again was assured the "concern group" would contact me withing 24 hours. I didn't believe the rep, based on my previous lack of contact and asked how I can contact the "concern group" myself so I don't have to go through this entire process again. The "concern group" is offline, no way to contact them but "I ASSURE YOU" you will hear from them withing 24 hours. Well, 48 hours later, I'm totally in a very hateful mood. I opened another chat session and rather than submitting that person on the other end to my venom, I just pasted my chat from Monday and said goodbye. Of couse, it's not going to do any good either.
    I saw a message board online yesterday, and today I can't find it, where people in my same situation received their upgrade to CS6 with no addition cost.
    I know it's being done but Customer service is so...aggravating that I believe it's a way to make people just give up and go away. Not this time.

  • Why should i pay a bill about an app, when the money will write of from my appstorecredit?

    a few days ago, i had a new e-mail.. from ITunes. I should pay for a bill although i had enough money on my appstorecredit.

    Are you sure it's not just the normal receipt for a purchase? If it's definitely indicating that you owe money and you're sure it's for a purchase you made - if it's asking you for any personal information and it's not for a valid purchase, the email could be a phish - go here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • Slow Broadband, 0.7 why should i pay £40 a month f...

    So fed up of BT, for the last month our speed has been less than a megabyte and am paying £40 a month yet cant even load most of the pages etc. Think its ridiculious like as 2months ago i was getting 1.5 and now im down to this, can anyone help us, we have had engineers out and everything, yet if i cancel the contract i will get charged for the full contract which doesnt seem fair either considering they can not proivde a decent service. 

    in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems) http://speedtester.bt.com or http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9354/c/346,4740,5520 and post the results .
    are you connected directly to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
    Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
    Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

  • Re: Why should I pay?

    I would prefer not to pay also.  I would prefer not to be with BT at all.  I have tried to manage my payments, on the manage your payments page, and I get the following: sorry we can't complete your request right now.  Please try again later.

    Hi Fizzoff,
    Thanks for the post.  I am sorry for the problems you are having using the BT.com manage your payments section.  I can sort this out for you.  I will need your details so I can see what the problem is.
