Thank you for your explanation.

I guess it just frustrates me because I can't get around it.

With physical goods, if I don't like the AU price, I can easily shop online on another countries website and get the goods shipped. No problems.

With digital goods, there's mostly no way to legitimately purchase them from overseas. You can use a VPN and a fake address, but that breaks the terms & conditions.

Of course. Copyright is essentially a right to a monopoly, how can you expect competition offering the same product?

(I'm not being factitious, it's exactly what it is)
