Corel wrote to me and said, essentially, Yeah, our Paint Shop Pro pricing in Australia sucks. We know, and we're working to fix it, but we're tied up in old distribution contracts.

For those who haven't been following the story: I can download Paint Shop Pro online for $59. Except I can't, because I live in Australia.
I can buy it in a box for $79, less a $30 mail-in rebate. Except I can't, because I live in Australia.
Because I live in Australia, it costs me two hundred and ninety-nine dollars.
But at least they have acknowledged the problem.

I share your discontent; just substitute Canada for Australia and we're in the same leaky boat, although as I am geographically closer to the USA I do (ahem) have a work around ;-)

Debbye - reminds me of that old humour piece about Aussies, Americans, Canadians and Brits... one part said:
Brits: Shop at home and have goods imported because they live on an island.
Aussies: Shop at home and have goods imported because they live on an island.
Americans: Cross the southern border for cheap shopping, gas, & liquor in a backwards country.
Canadians: Cross the southern border for cheap shopping, gas, & liquor in a backwards country.
