"In the US QT 6 Pro costs 29,99 US$ (+tax). In Europe the price is 35,- Euro (+tax). At an exchange rate of 1,01 US$ per Euro that is 35,35 US$.
Why is QuickTime 18% more expensive in Europe?
Why are all(!) Apple products appr. 20% more expensive in Europe?
When the Euro exchange rate got weaker towards the US$ it took Apple only 2 weeks to rise the european prices. Now the Dollar is falling since April and they still do not react.
Look into the online forums in Europe and you will find hundreds of users who want to buy Apple products but wait until Apple adjusts their prices!"<hr></blockquote>
