Yes, obviously. An American company decides that their product X has a sale value of Y: why should I have to pay a premium just because I'm residing in Europe? I'd pay the VAT, if reuired, grudgingly, but not a cent more. It works that way with pbooks, remember? Only we need to add the cost shipping to that, something that it not the case with digital goods.
