Yes, I get how the exchange rate works, and I understand that there are a fair number of developers in Brazil. It doesn't answer my question though, which is where do most developers live?

Like I said there's nothing wrong with choosing free software. It's a great option. The more Linux, vim/Emacs/Eclipse, Gimp/Inkscape users, the better.

Is the statement in question this one?

They work on/for local markets, earning local salaries. $70 is suddenly a lot. Nothing to do with being "cheap".
