Subject: Australian Steam users about to get hit with price increase
As if games in Australia aren't already expensive enough, they are about to be subject to the country's 10% goods and services tax.
Video games in Australia are already considerably more expensive than their American counterparts, for almost no reason at all. I'm afraid it's only going to get better before it gets worse, as a new ruling from the Australian Government is forcing all overseas digital distributors to attach the 10% goods and services tax to their products that physical goods are subject to.
That is no bueno. That is no bueno at all.
