In a modern world, why are digital products still locked by region/country?
In: Economics
Mostly to ensure developers and publishers get what they’re owed and cut down on piracy.
The average consumer in lower income country can’t afford to pay the same for a product as the average consumer in higher income country. So publishers set the sales price for that item to be lower in the lower income country.
But to prevent people in the higher income country from just buying those cheaper keys, they put a region lock on it.
