You know, UK'ers/EU'ers always get a raw deal when it comes to price point on content that's comparable with US releases.

IIRC, it's all down to the licensing laws and the same said charges that are applied to all retail.

Just be thankful, those same licensing laws have not delayed the the release for you because they frequently do. I've been waiting 3 months for something that was released in the US to finally get it's EU release.

Sucks to be us in so many ways.

There are ways to Pay & Download US only content, I do it all the time on my PS3. F'ing US store gets everything 2 months before we do. I'll see if I can find the details......(BTW, it's totally above board & legal. Before the forum police come running).
