I call it the "Apple pricing",where 1$ == 1€ .Why do businesses do that ? I'm pretty sure they'd ajust their pricing if 1€<1$.
I get that one needs to adjust with local regulations,the cost doing business,localisation,... but still 1$ != 1€. (a few years ago, 1€ ~= 1.50$ , so much that people just flew to USA to buy expensive Apple gear,and it was still cheaper than paying the € price).
With Apple's market it seems inconsistent. There are some iPhone apps that are $0.99/€0.99/£0.99 or $9.99/€9.99/£9.99, but also many that are $0.99/€0.89/£0.69 or $9.99/€8.99/£6.99. Not an exact conversion, but not just swapping out the signs either. I think the app author gets to choose which of those two pricing schemes they want.
