Most songs are between $0.89 (single download) and $1.39 (dual download). Most albums are between $9.99 (single download) and $12.99 (dual download). Users will need to set up a Didiom account, but they do not need to provide their credit card information. When they are ready to make purchases, they pay per download or prepay and receive a cash bonus.
