Petition Stop companies from overcharging UK & Europe for the same service as the US.

For years, various companies have been overcharging its UK & European customers for the same service as in the USA. For example, a music streaming service (Apple Music $9.99, Spotify $9.99) and for the service in the UK, is £9.99. How can this be? At today's currency, the $ is not the same as the £.

More details

At today's currency conversion (28/07/15 1 GBP = 1.55621 USD) $9.99 = £6.42. Thats a £3.57 pure profit or obtaining more money from their customers, by just simply changing a currency symbol.

Apple Music :
UK £9.99 - https://www.apple.com/uk/music/membership
USA $9.99 - https://www.apple.com/music/membership

Spotify :-
UK £9.99 - https://www.spotify.com/uk/premium
US $9.99 - https://www.spotify.com/us/premium/

This practice must be made illegal and a refund given back to their customers.
