Well, jcbwms, I think we've run out of things to argue about :) It's been a pleasure.

(I'll just add that I said "none of which explain why I should pay more to download Poser 6", not "why I do have to...";) )

But the irony of all this is that, so far, Digital River are the only ones agreeing that I should be able to pay in $US!

When I first told them I was an Australian wanting to pay in $US but couldn't, they said "The error you are reporting indicates a missing or corrupt online store cookie." No doubt a standard reply to cover a lot of problems, but when I followed up that allowing cookies didn't solve the problem, they sent me the direct link to the US store and said to use that!

Unfortunately, when I try to purchase it says "The products you have selected are not available in your area." (This may also be a problem if someone buys it on my behalf. I may be locked out of downloading it if I'm not from the right area.)

Wouldn't it be funny if my whining pointed out a circumstance DR had overlooked...and actually changed something!
