It might also prompt the local distributors to take a more aggressive marketing, sales and support track to the benefit of their local customer base. But just thinking about it for a moment, one solution for many end users might be - if it were possible to overhaul the entire distribution scheme - for local distributors to have exclusive distribution only for local mail order or in-store placement of physical product, along with product support for just what they sell but that downloads and international mail order could still be easily, economically and/or legally obtained from the same distribution streams as are readily available to Americans, with support through these forums or with contact with Adobe USA.
