Sorry, the prices I mentioned had VAT included. So it's not higher in europe 
than in japan, assuming you guys meant net from taxes.

 

Personally, I don't think prices on software are too high these days in 
general. Anything else just became too cheap.  What I don't like these days is 
any sort of cloud-based licensing, temporal licencing, "subscription advantage 
packs" or whatever they call it. But thats me.

It's even more in europe. 4.700€ (6200 US$) for a new license... The update is 
2.700€ / 3.500UD$. Don't know about subscription.

In New Zealand, it is almost same price as Japan, which is too expensive.

If it makes you feel better, we pay US$5700+ for Softimage in Japan, and 
US$2000+ for subscription.

Looking for a sketch app, I had a look at Sketchbook Pro.
On the US website it was on sale for $59, but clicking through I ended up at 
the EU side of things.

To my surprise the price went up to € 74,75 / $100,= That's a 70% increase!!
Even with taxes added it doesn't compute on my end.
In this digital (download) time and age, especially with simpler software like 
this, stuff like this should be one price.

Alternatives like Manga Studio, or Artrage don't convert any pricing from 
dollars to euros.
