Your way sounds great. Unfortunately, in practice this system is usually used to raise prices outside the US for countries where the public is used to paying more for stuff - not the other way around.

Anyway, I was mostly referring not to price differences but to availability differences. You can argue for or against price differentiation, but I challenge you to provide one good reason why I can purchase a movie on a DVD in my country, but not watch it on Netflix - or why that movie would become available locally months after its US premier.
