Back in the early days when everyone played on CRT TVs, Australian sets ran 60Hz much like Europe. The US and Japan ran 50Hz. Zoning was established for physical manufacturing reasons and the rest is history.

Backwards, but yeah, sounds logical. (Europe, Australia = 50 Hz PAL or SECAM. US, Japan = 60 Hz NTSC.)

hope the USA does this, i rather not stick my debt or CC to an account if i dont have to.

it would help the people who dont have CC or debt also. sounds like extra money for SE

We've always had the choice, you can find this in almost every 7-11, CVS, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, misc convenience store. Perfect for those with Legacy accounts as 20 dollar card = 2 months worth of Crysta points.

Ah, yeah, whoops. I did get that backwards, didn't I?
Just goes to show how irrelevant the distinction is these days.
