Comment on "Valve must stop making excuses": Steam under fire for "significant price disparity for PC games," causing regional pricing that's "often 20% to 30% higher than the dollar equivalent"

While I get the underlying point, any schedule for changing prices is going to cause a proportional gap as well. Even changing annually will have points in time where purchasing power relative to the dollar changes.

Plus constantly chaning would seem like they are trying to get more at certain times. Honestly there isn't a pricing scheme that involves the US dollar that isn't just converting local currency to dollars at the time of purchase and that is a whole can of worms too.
