Wooo i see that apps / games that were previously 2.49 in the marketplace are now 2.29.

Welcome news indeedy me thinks. It's not massive, but every little helps. :)

[drunkard]

Yeah, I just noticed today that apps are now priced the same in Canada as the USA marketplace prices.

I don't understand much about euros Is the difference from 2.49 to 2.29 important? Like for example from 2.99 to 1.99 dollars?

[TheWeeBear]

Well it's only 20 pence lower and there's 100 pence in a GB Pound so you save 1 for every 5 apps you buy.

Better than nothing. :)

I think it's a big deal when the current exchange rate for Canadian to US funds is practically on par. It really seemed outrageous to me that US users got a better deal for no apparent reason. Now they just need to lower XBL game prices to a competitive level (vs Android/iOS apps that are the same but cost a dollar!)

Not to get to political, and not to defend Bush, I hated him. But the billions wasted on the war is not what really ruined our economy, though it did not help. It was the housing market crashing and other things that really screwed the economy over.


But sorry, when the US economy goes back, it makes things more expensive for the reset of the world.

I am not trying to sound like the US is perfect and more important then your country, etc. But we simply supply to much of the worlds food (exported, paid for, not talking about donations). When our economy gets bad, it makes everybody else food prices go up; as they have been everywhere.

It is a great big system; if you want your economy to stay good/get better, well then your country better either come invade and take over the US or you better hope the US economy gets better faster, or if you are not suffering yet you will soon.

unnecessary wars coupled with housing crisis and bush era tax cuts = economy in ****ter.
