App World currency problem
I am thinking about writing a quick article to show people how to pay for apps in different currencies in order to bypass the App World currency-converter (or lack of) craziness.
I'd like to know whether people think this is 'unfair' to developers or a 'scam'.
At the end of the day, the developers still get the same money whether it's in GBP, USD or Euros... right? That is how I believe the system works.
How does the Apple app store handle this? Does it convert app prices to local currency? If an app is $5 will it also be �5 or converted?
Update 28/12: I have posted my article for all to view @ http://emtunc.org/blog/12/2011/the-f...ther-currency/
From a consumer standpoint I could find no rationale behind RIM pricing strategies. Happy for any comments.
