But both Netflix and Spotify adjust subscription price based on country, presumably not depending on how difficult it is to negotiate with local copyright owners or connectivity providers, but based on local cost of living.
The granularity isn't the same, either. Companies seem to apply CoL adjustments for remote jobs inside the US. Does a Netflix subscription vary by where you are in the US?
Yeah you're right. That's price discrimination[1]. I guess varying salaries by CoL for remote employees might be sort of inverted price discrimination, because it's being done by a one buyer against multiple sellers, instead of the usual one seller against multiple buyers.
