It might be detecting your IP is coming from the U.S. I currently work in China so it brought up the Euro option.

As I recall (perhaps not clearly) the V5 upgrade was 29 Euros, but I had to pay US$39.
{Not that I am complaining about that, at the time the exchange rate was probably about that anyway}

MAYBE there was a drop down currency choice selector that I missed.
If there is one now I will watch the exchange rate and try to time my next upgrade.
If there isn't one I hope Modartt will soon adjust its US prices - hopefully before parity is reached, or soon after
EDIT:
I just visited the "buy" page.
Everything is priced in US$ and if I approach checkout there are no options to purchase in any other currency.
It may be that some cookies are set in my browser to allow me to buy ONLY in US$.
I may try from another system.

Some years ago, I don't remember exactly when, pianoteq was the same price in US$ as it was in Euros.
This seemed fair at the time.
Later the US$ slipped quite sharply against the Euro and since Modartt is based in France it was reasonable that they would adjust US$ prices to yield the same Euro return.

Later yet, the US$ has now regained strength.
Which leads to the obvious question; When can US customers expect to see downward price adjustments ?
