No one gives a shit about 'surfers' other than traffic guys.

BROgrams, and site owners should only care about consumers who BUY. Not all freeloaders are buying customers, and it is just one more excuse as to why they do not sign up.

Looking at your customer base like it is one collective of all the same intentions, and interests, is part of the problem in this business. As if ALL consumers think the same. More over, I do not think the vast majority of sites out there actually DO regional pricing on their cascades.

It is one more scapegoat for having shitty content, banging in credit cards, ripping off members, or promoting sites that have not been updated since 2001 and/or being out of touch with what the BUYING public want in their content.

It is not to say regional pricing does not have some effect in the grand scheme of things. But considering what I just mentioned, along with economy, and credit crunch/declines are bigger factors by far.
