how weird. on looking on the apple.com site, and playing around with the country selector, it seems that in Portugal its cheaper than almost anywhere. latvia mind you has the same prices.
noticeably the countries with the cheap price dont have a student option.
so for example, UK is student 4.99 individual 9.99 family 14.99
Spain, and most countries in Europe is students €4.99 individual €9.99 families €14.99
Portugal, Greece, Latvia, no student option individual €6.99 family €10.99
and i can get an annual one for €69
