Will be interesting to see any responses you might get. In the meantime, I suggest its just the usual Ripp-off Britain thing again. And Pulsedata sell direct as far as I know, so there is no middle man involved. Same applies to downloads from I-tunes. $99.00 in the US, 99p in UK. Where is the extra cost there to justify the higher price?
