And the reason there is less demand is because the average income is lower and percentage of the monthly wage higher, not because the EPL is less popular here. Not as many people can afford it here.
Yes sky should be cheaper in regions with a lower average income, but i believe the rates are set at the national level, not local.
Do you feel the poor rice farmer in China should pay £55 for the PL despite the fact his daily earnings are the equivalent of 2 dollars? Way to run a business. You would have no no customers left. Sky and BT will charge what the people are willing to pay and can afford to pay. The moment you stop paying and subscription numbers go down, so to will the prices.
Again, basic economics. For a retired accountant you don't seem too clued up on how this demand and supply thing works.
as is America why do they not charge more ? instead they charge less than the UK far less. Thats because the market can bear less because of demand. People in the UK would rather starve than not have sky as you would know should you ever come here. Every council house has a sky box yet the same people are going to foodbanks. If overseas they charged what they do in the UK the sales would plument irrespective of income in those countries because essentially its english teams that will never compete with their own sports or teams. That stands to reason
Right. Firstly it seems you are in dire need of a geography lesson. Secondly, following your newly acquired knowledge, it seems you are need of a reality check.
Let me begin,
The countries which are generally included under the term "Far East" are China, Hong Kong, Brunei, Vietnam, Myanmar, Cambodia, the far east of Russia, Mongolia, Japan, Taiwan, North and South Korea, East Timor, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, papua New Guinea, Singapore, Thailand etc. That should clue you up on what "The Far east" refers to.
Now, to the reality check.
YOu say in the far East, wealth is on par or greater than in the UK.

In green you have the Far east countries which are comparable, in yellow those which have approximately a quarter or less of the monthly income of the UK and in red those which have shockingly low average monthly income figures.
Now, to suggest that the far east has a wealth comparable or even greater than the UK, as you did, is not only incorrect, it is uneducated and beyong any comprehension.
If you want to enter a debate and try and give a reasoned argument, please, refrain from posting utter bullshitt. I have no problems with opposing views, I have a problem with you trying to talk your way through an argument by passing a wild uneducated guess off as fact.
I have already suggested once that you put a bit more effort and research into your posts so that your arghuments would have some more credibility. Like this, when one post after the other is proven to be nothing more than the product of your imaination, they lack any credibility whatsoever.
