You sure you can't with the same usb drive you'd need for anything made in the last decade?

Because it's low quality and stuffed with trash.
If it's real food you freeze and reheat it's different.
I said it wouldn't be negligible. It would be literally zero.
The increased volume in lower income regions is massively less than the lowered revenue in the first world in every case. Regional pricing is "bonus" revenue from low income regions. It does not offset the first world in any way.
No, it won't. There's no point on the curve where low income regions have any possibility whatsoever of enough volume to affect it in any way. It's not a matter of "affording" anything, because adjusting to satisfy those regions is lower revenue than ignoring them.
It won't have a negligible impact on pricing. It will be literally zero.
No, there's not even a theoretical possibility for that to happen. Lower priced regions are lower priced because there aren't a meaningful number of people in those regions able to pay first world prices.
Lowering the global revenue by whatever small amount those regions bring doesn't somehow incentivize publishers to lower revenue further by lowering prices in the first world. It makes no sense to think it does.
Your stance on membership is full on looney tunes.
It's not a statement that allows for the possibility that a person has even a shred of intelligence or sanity.
No, they are not.
The fact that they're making more net money from those regions than they otherwise would, by definition, makes it literally impossible for you to be subsidizing them. The alternative is not listing in those regions, not lowering prices for you. There is no theoretical world where you get a cheaper price in developed countries without regional pricing in lower income regions.
"Making more revenue with negligible cost of distribution" and "we're subsidizing poor countries" are not compatible.
Do you really think they're going to make more revenue by making the pricing more than they're willing/able to pay?
Because if publishers did, they wouldn't offer regional pricing.
If your local store isn't following Costco's policies, that's not Costco's fault. Report them if you really want.
A membership is absolutely not required to use the "food court". The machine doesn't scan or use your membership at all. The rest of your complaints are equally bold faced lies that don't in any way match Costco's policy, or full on unhinged lunatic horseshit.
Prius made the market look negligible because it was such a repulsive piece of shit most people were too embarrassed to buy them.
I don't think Trump is the first to run for president after being voted out.
Not running for a lesser office is way more the "unwritten rule".
