There are no hints about what the price will be like. Actually the only thing known in respect of the pricing information is that users will be able to download 200,000 songs offered for about $.99 a song. The company also offers the so called dual downloads, i.e. to download one and the same song both on a mobile phone and a computer, offered by Sprint as well.
