Good luck.

You have to consider the extra costs of preparing downoads for export and of collecting money from non-USA international credit cards...

Because in business and in economics there is something called dual pricing whereby a business will have a special price for exports.

Also, I know that if you are downloading using DigitalRiver servers then they are not transferring any benefits of currency fluctuations to the consumer.  Adobe can force them but they don't.

The only alternative is to buy from Amazon because you get the benefit of currency fluctuations through your credit card company who are required to real time currency translation values.
