I am not sure if this is the best sub-forum for this subject, but I can not find a more suitable one, so here we go...

As a European living in the USA for 14 years, betting heavily on the North American sports and in just the last 2 years being involved also in serious football (soccer) betting - and also managing tipping site & independent tipsters, something is very interesting to me, and I could never found an explanation to this:
North American (USA + Canada) sports service average subscription prices are minimum 3 times higher than of those of European based sports services!
In North America the average prices for a month for well established sites and sports handicappers tend towards $300..., while in Europe doesn't seem to me that they are more than around 70 EUR.
What you think are the reasons for this?
A few weeks ago, when I asked the same from a reputable UK based site's manager (site which verifies betting systems and sports services), he thought that:
"It's because in Europe there are very many services, the market is over saturated, while in the USA legally you can not bet on the Internet, so also the number of services is a lot lower, and those seem like some kind of novelty".
For which I responded that this is very much not true, and from my long time experience I can tell that in North America no matter if folks can not bet legally online (who cares, lol...), and USA people are banned from all important Euro bookies, but still everybody and their dogs are betting, (just look at those huge betting forums, with most US and Canada members), and there are truckloads of sports services.
I hardly believe that in the USA and Canada there are less services compared with the population than in Europe!
I'm very curios what do you think would be the reasons for the big price discrepancies.
