Comment (by obenland):

 I for one think it's legitimate to adjust translations for cultural
 differences. We can't expect things that work in the US to also work in
 other parts of the world. Rather than attempting to come up with a
 promotional phrase that works in all parts of the world to some degree, I
 think translators should have the freedom to make changes that work for
 their cultures, but still honor the intend of the string in question. I'm
 happy to be corrected on that stance though.

 So I'd suggest to translate it in a way that your community sees fit,
 rather than change the string for everyone.
