How much does it cost?

All downloadable content has a licensing charge that serves to compensate the content's authors.

Data transmission costs can also apply. These costs, determined ahead of time, vary from 50¢ to $1, depending on the type of content downloaded. They are only applicable when content is downloaded directly to your device (without going through a USB cable connected to your computer). If you download content to your computer, then to your phone using a USB cable, there are no data transmission costs.

Type of content Price range
Polytones $2
Authentic ringtones From $3 to $3.50
Downloadable games From $3 to $7
Wallpapers From $2 to $2.50
Videos $2

Note: when you download a game, the fees apply at the time of the download, not each time you play.
