I would have had a subscription or two for the past few of years (APs for sure) if not for the international shipping rates. It has come to my attention through boards (such as reddit) that there are several people like me in both Canada and Australia.
Are there any intentions to open international offices in order to provide content to those in other countries without the crazy shipping fees?
Otherwise the profits end up going to the discount distributors and not into the pockets of the business we would like to support. With a local office to distribute yourselves, the profits could go to where they ought to be. Heck, I'm only a few years from retiring and would even assist in such an endeavor!
