Mobile Marketing Fantasy Vs. Reality

admin — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 08:43:39 +0000

Those who doubt that mobile marketing hasn't made headway might want to go amp themselves.

Among the brands that ponied up millions for a piece of the Super Bowl this year was PepsiCo beverage Amp Energy. While its 15-second TV spots didn't venture far from the proven realms of Big Game locker-room humorâ€”one featured an overweight truck driver starting a stalled-out car via jumper cables hooked up to his nipplesâ€”a quieter, related effort was reaching much further out. How far? Well, to people who might not even have had the game on at all. As part of its NFL deal, Amp Energy sponsored Sprint's exclusive Super Bowl mobile channel, which allowed it to run ads via cell phone. A photo of the Amp can materialized on cell phone screens along with music, swirling green flames and the tagline "Go Amp Yourself." (Hopefully, none of those cell phone users elected to do it with jumper cables.)

When a Super Bowl ad effort stretches into the cellular realm, it's surely a sign that mobile marketing has arrived, right? After all, even though the third-screen spot was a timid boil-down of the in-your-face TV version, the very idea of adapting a commercial for mobile distribution would have seemed like an alien concept only a few years ago.

Today it is a reality, sort of. Around this time 12 months ago, experts were busy touting mobile marketing as the Next Big Thing. It wasn't. And not a whole lot is different. Mega brands like Pepsi and Burger King are still toe-dipping in the mobile pool, testing various forms of advertising and promos even as the bulk of their spending dollars go elsewhere.

As mobile expert John Hadl puts it: "It's hard to get a real read on the value of mobile when you're only spending $25,000 to $50,000 on it."

But things are beginning to change. Mobile marketing is "headed in the right direction," said John Vail, director of the interactive marketing group at Pepsi-Cola North America, Purchase, N.Y. "It's just taking a lot longer than people thought." Mobile analytics firms such as U.K.-based Bango are helping companies measure mobile Web site traffic, what devices recipients used and the countries they're in. In February, 58 million mobile subscribers reported that they'd already been exposed to mobile advertising, per San Francisco-based Nielsen Mobile (a unit of Nielsen Co., which also owns Brandweek). While that's only 23% of today's total mobile subscribers, that number will spike as marketers' mobile experiments continue to grow. And Hadl, who serves as managing partner of Beverly Hills-based BrandInHand, overseer of Procter & Gamble's mobile efforts, added that a threshold is approaching: "Once there's direct proof of ROI," he said, "the spend will shift faster than the industry can handle."

That might happen as soon as two years from now. Forrester Research forecasts that mobile-marketing spending in the U.S. will surge from the $270 million it stands at now to $405 million in 2009. Then it all goes exponential, doubling every year through 2012, at which point the Cambridge, Mass.-based research firm predicts mobile marketing will be worth $2.8 billion.

Marketers view the mobile marketing explosion as "inevitable," said Bill Jones, president of Atlanta-based mobile Internet platform provider Air2Web, which counts Starbucks and UPS as clients. Some are "really trying to accelerate" the channel because "properly used it is the most effective mechanism to interact with customers and prospects."

All of which begs the question: How can marketers profitably use mobile devices to deliver their brand messages right now?

What follows are some of the answers. Like many emergent ideas in the tech realm, mobile marketing's birth has been attended by as much fantasy as reality, and marketers are learning the painstaking (and, at times, just painful) differences between the two. For instance, studies repeatedly show that many consumers don't like to get ads on their phones. (A mere 10% of mobile data users deem ads received via PDAs to be acceptable, according to Nielsen Mobile.) At the same time, a third of the same respondents said they'd be OK with seeing ads, so long as the spots offset their mobile billsâ€”say, via free minutes. "That," said Nielsen Mobile corporate marketing vp Paul Okimoto, "is where we're starting to see an uptick."

No doubt, we'll start to see many more of those. For now, here's the story on the mobile-marketing phenom todayâ€”both fantasy and reality.

REALITY

Customers dig mobile games.

Videogames were once synonymous with geekdom, but one glance at who's using a Wii these days (including AARP members and the physically disabled, at last check) shows how dated that stereotype is. This love affair has carried over to mobile devices. In fact, some watchers are now predicting that the global revenue from mobile games will eventually surpass that of traditional console and handheld versions. According to U.K.-based consultancy Understanding & Solutions, mobile gaming is expected to hit $6 billion by 2011.

Some brands are already prepared to embrace this passion by offering free downloadable games for mobile devices that keep their brand front and center. The latest is BK City, debuting April 21, an elaborate game with three worlds (five games in each) ranging from a castle to a BK drive-thru. It will be available across all carriers except for Verizon. POP, online ads and mobile ads, of course, will support the effort. BK City is the latest creation of Mobliss, Seattle, whose prior efforts include Nickelodeon's Rugrats Food Fight and Brady Bunch Kung Fu.

"A lot of what mobile content advertisers throw out there is cheesy," said Tia Lang, director of media and interactive for the Miami-based chain. But, "as players progress, our game gets more difficult. It's fun, funny and relevant to our target."

FANTASY

People will never use their phones to buy stuff.

Think again. Remember when everyone was worried about using credit cards online? Even some tech-savvy shoppers wrung their hands over cyberthieves stealing their identities and draining their savings accounts. (Psstâ€”it rarely happens.) Even as those same worries have swirled around mobile banking and on-the-go transactions, the truth is that a quarter of cell users with mobile Web access have already trusted their handheld devices to do their shopping, according Harris Interactive, Rochester, N.Y. Sixteen percent already use mobile banking services and one-in-five respondents hope their phone becomes a mobile wallet.

Smarter brands are beginning to respond. In January, Pizza Hut began allowing U.S. consumers to order from any of its 6,200 stores using the mobile Web or text messaging. The chain said it expects half its sales to come online or via mobile devices within the next five years. Papa John's began offering the ability to text in orders last November.

"If privacy and security issues can be caged, mobile banking and mobile wallet services could launch the next leg up for mobile operators," predicted Joseph Porus, vp of Harris Interactive's technology practice. Rajeev Raman, CEO of mywaves, a mobile video destination whose clients include MBW, concurs. In the near future, he said, "purchasing movie tickets, fast food and music via mobile phones will be considered normal, everyday behavior."

REALITY

Convenience works.

Skip the cleverisms; brands that give consumers information that makes their lives easier are the ones that'll benefit. "That's why we bought the phone in the first place," Hadl said.

Starbucks, for example, makes it easy to find the nearest latte with a mobile-based store locator. When is that blue turtleneck you ordered going to show up? UPS will let you track the whereabouts of your package on your mobile device.

"Too many people pigeonhole mobile marketing as just being ringtones or wallpapers," said Air2Web's Jones, whose company created both applications. Brands that sponsor services that tell users things like where the is nearest baby-changing station or where is the store where I can buy what I need, will thrive, added Hadl of BrandinHand. "Soon," he said, "mobile devices won't simply be a push medium."

FANTASY

Texting (aka SMS) isn't effective.

Like hell it isn't. While many are looking at mobile video, the mobile Web and other features, the simple, text-only brand campaign often still is what works the best. Why? Because even the oldest, most primitive cell phones out there have the technology that lets people receive a text promo and respond to one. Plus, the practice of text messaging has already been widely adopted.

In December, 1-800-Free411 attached ads sent to users who opted in to receive text horoscopes, diet tips and other information from a company called Limbo. While the free-information service usually gets about 40,000 to 50,000 new callers daily, that volume shot up to nearly 80,000 a day after the mobile ads ran. Overall, Limbo received a 7.1% response rate for text ads it ran for its clients in the fourth quarter.

"The forgotten technology of SMS will be a much bigger factor in digital spends than anyone is predicting," said Jonathan Linner, CEO of Limbo, Burlingame, Calif., who's amused that so many marketers are buzzing about putting a movie or banner ad on a cell phone. Those people, he said, "Don't' get it yet. You'll get 10 times better performance from SMS."

REALITY

The iPhone's changed everything.

One of the biggest hang-ups (pun intended) for mobile marketers is the lack of "high" in the tech. We're talking about antideluvian cell phones that everybody was carrying around prior to last summer, when the Apple iPhone hit stores. In January, CEO Steve Jobs had promised the iPhone would "reinvent" telecommunications. Some disagreed. Some still do. But mobile-marketing advocates generally aren't among them. The average iPhone user over the age of 18 is five times more likely to explore the mobile Web and 11 times more likely to use mobile video or TV, per Nielsen Mobile. An iPhone-toting American also is 70% more likely to use SMS.

"Look no further than the iPhone for proof that improving the device and user interface can radically increase media consumption," said John Najarian, svp-media and business development at the Comcast Entertainment Group, who oversees E!'s mobile page.

Better still, the iPhone's popularity has meant lower-price imitatorsâ€”triggering a new generation of "smart phones" that experts like Chetan Sharma, co-author of the just-released book Mobile Advertising, believe will make up as many as 20% of the domestic market in two years. (More powerful data pipelines as well as all-you-can-eat data plans will help, too.) Thanks to the iPhone, Sharma said, Americans finally think the cell phone "is more than just something you talk with."

FANTASY

It's getting easier to run mobile marketing programs.

Dream on. It still takes about two months to get a major carrier like AT&T or Verizon to approve a text program. And that, according to Gene Keenan, vp-mobile services at Isobar, San Francisco, and vice chairman of the Mobile Marketing Assn., Denver, is "ridiculous."

"You can by a URL and have a Web site up in two hours," Keenan said. "It's still way too hard for brands and agencies to do mobile." Even worse: "Until it's easier for big brands to participate, you won't see the big money."

Keenan and experts like him have likened carriers to walled gardens: nice to be part of, but good luck getting in. They exert authoritarian control over their on-deck content (that's the proprietary stuff available only to subscribers) and move with Soviet-style bureaucratic slowness in approving marketing programs.

For instance, WAP sites and banner ads have to be customized by handset and by carrier. "It introduces a lot of complexity," Sharma said. "You can't press a button and have a program launch nationwide. You have to negotiate everything and get your content approved."

But stay tuned; fantasy might turn to reality by this time next year. "You can get over the wall," Hadl said. "You'll get hot and sweaty doing it, but you can get over. AOL already proved that this [walled approach] is a model for failure."

REALITY

The mobile ecosystem is evolving rapidly.

Quick as the pace of technology is, sometimes it never seems quick enough. But mobile advocates hamstrung by tools that haven't kept pace with their marketing dreams may soon be doing a high-tech jig. In November, Google announced Android, a new Linux-based operating system for mobile. Microsoft just inked a deal with Nokia that'll bring its Silverlight platform to mobile. And this quarter, Yahoo! will launch what it calls onePlace, a mobile bookmarking tool that will allow better control of information. These developments come on the heels of AOL's '07 purchase of Third Screen Media, a company that serves banner ads to mobile Web sites. Nokia bought the mobile agency Enpocket last year, too.

All of it, said Sharma, means that "there's a cautious optimism" out there. "Optimism, because of the uniqueness and reach mobile presents. Caution because of the enormous fragmentation in the industry."

FANTASY

There is one killer application.

Just like Gilda Radner and Dan Aykroyd debated whether New Shimmer was a floor wax or a dessert topping (it's both!) on Saturday Night Live, each marketer seems to have his own miracle claim for mobile marketing. And so far, nobody's quite nailed it.

Take GPS-enabled initiatives, which some see as the potential holy grail of mobile marketing. CBS Mobile announced a test earlier in the year that'll pinpoint ads to customers based on where they happen to be standing, and Burger King's Lang has been lovingly nurturing the idea of "serving customers an ad at lunchtime, asking them if they're hungry." The problem? "Those kinds of things are fantasy."

Hardly the only one. "My fantasy is offering Pepsi Smash [music programming] as video-on-demand optimized for the third screen for millions to view," Vail said. P&G, General Mills and others are currently in test with Cellfire, a company whose technology allows customers to store e-coupons on their cell phones.

There's the dream of direct-to-consumer mobile video, alive in the mind of BMW Mini as it kicked off a program with mywaves in January. Still others are excited about mobile search; more than 46 million used their phones to search for information in the third quarter of last year, per Nielsen Mobile.

Alex Muller will tell you that GPS-driven mobile marketing won't be a fantasy for much longer (then again, he's CEO of GPShopper, which enables mobile-using customers to track down the best deals on stuff they want to buy.) "There will be a point," he said, "where flipping through a paper circular won't make sense."

REALITY

There needs to be standards.

Mobile marketing is still a lot like the Wild West: a landscape of many players of various reputes, each a competitor peddling his wares and promises. "We need to develop more standards to reduce the friction out there," said Jordan Berman, executive director of media innovation at AT&T Mobility, New York. "There needs to be more uniformity about how programs get off the ground. I'm on the MMA board of directors and we all agree it is a confusing marketplace out there."

Then again, people said much the same thing about the Web itself when it was new. The growing pains, Berman said, are natural: "Online is like a toddler; mobile marketing is still in the womb."

The Appleâ€™s Ipod Touch â€“ a New Experience in User Interface and Mobile Application Interface

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 03:21:10 +0000

The Appleâ€™s Ipod Touch â€“ a new experience in user interface and mobile application interface.

Apple's new iPod Touch seems to be falling between two categories of electronics devices. It looks like an iPhone, but it does not include a phone and do not have several of the other iPhone features, such as a camera and Bluetooth. But similarly the iPod Touch neither looks nor acts like a traditional iPod, and offers only a fraction the memory capacity of a similar-sized iPod Classic, but it performs iPod functions.

The iPod Touch's wireless feature is somewhat confusing. It is obviously meant for selling iTunes content. Up till January 2008, the WiFi incidentally provides Web access via a special version of Safari and a YouTube application, but email was absent. This is however been upgraded as of January 2008 (see below statement).

So we look at a hybrid device which can not replace the integrated combinations found in the iPhone, such as camera, phone and media player. It can not replace an iPod Nano as the small music player or an iPod Classic holding 160 GB of material. We find it serves as an introduction to Apple's new "multi-touch" user interface.

This introduction will cost you $299, for the 8GB model, or $399 for the 16GB version.

Apple announced a major software upgrade for the iPod Touch, making iPod into even more than previously, namely the top of the line Wi-Fi mobile device. iPod Touch have the an advanced mobile web browser with Safari, and now Apple adds five more great mobile applications such as Mail, Maps, Stocks, Weather and Notes. The iPod Touch software upgrade also includes new features such as Web Clips, a customizable home screen and the ability to watch iTunes Movie Rentals. New iPod Touch products shipping from the factory will include the software upgrade and existing iPod Touch customers can get the software upgrade for $19.99 by purchasing and downloading it from iTunes (www.itunes.com).

The iPhone features an intelligent keyboard that can fix mistakes as the user is typing. The iPhone offers a system for text messaging that has never been seen before. Its keyboard allows for typing that cannot be accomplished on the small plastic keyboards on other phones.

The iPhone comes equipped with OS Xâ€”the operating system that comes on Macintosh computers. The iPhone is so advanced that is can function as a small computer. The iPhone can browse the web like a computer, allowing its user to see headlines, to see stock market quotes, or do any of the other activities that a web browser can accomplish.

The iPhone is also a widescreen iPod. The iPhone allows its user to bring with them their music collection that can be accessed by the touch of a button.

It is not (just) a Telephone â€“ and We Talk About the Iphone 3G

admin — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 03:21:08 +0000

Lots of people spend energy discussing what iPhone can and can not do, compared to its competitors like HTC, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Blackberry and many more. Some are of the opinion that iPhone is the largest invention since the wheel was discovered, and others think it is a hoax. What is the real strategy behind Applesâ€™ work on this product?

iPhone is not foremost a telephone. iPhone is a small computer and media player that you also can make phone calls with.

Apple has made the first handheld computer platform that is so user friendly that you and me actually want to explore its potential it can offer you. Everybody that has dealt with the smart phones, PDAsâ€™ and pocket PCsâ€™ in the mobile and computer industry, knows that it is not something to be taken for granted. You will not be in love with a smart phone that is all other than smart.

On the iPhone you can read e-books, call for free on SKYPE, play electric guitar, drive car games, or play poker, check the TV programs, measure if my shelf is leveled right,. I can check my Twitter account, as I can check my e-mail, surf on the web and all the other things the phone is meant to do. I an also make my own programs on the gadget with the Apple SDK.

Several free or paid ad-on software like video recording and such, makes it possible to create some personality to my iPhone, which is not always something that can easily be done with the average cell phone.

The selection of free or shareware type of software is tremendous already, but is nothing to what will be available partly for free, and partly towards payment when Apple launches their shop for iPhone software in their AppStore.

Lots of the hacked iPhone software available now can be characterized as hobby projects, but after Apple opened up their platform for developers through their Software Development Kit for iPhone. Lots of serious software developers has entered the race to be the first and best iPhone developers in the market.

This is where the iPhone strategy differs. People are used to pay for music, movies and tv-series to their iPod or iPhone in iTunes Stores already. Then the road to shop software for a few bucks is short. All evidence points into the direction that user friendliness and shopping selection in AppStore will be in its own class, and differ dramatically from what the other cell phone producers can offer. How many times did you shop for software to your Nokia or SonyEricsson?

Just like with the iPod, Apple is building a closed eco system around the product. iPhone software will only be purchased through the AppStore, not very user friendly but it works. This is how the iPhone will become a money machine, that will tap into your account every time you just have to have that application you need.

With the 2.0 version of the iPhone release on July 11th Apple targets the business segment of the market as well. Integration towards Microsoft Exchange, high level of security and support for the push technology enables new email to automatically come into iPhone. At the same time the changes you make in your contact list or calendar at work will be updated on the iPhone.

How the Apple iPhone is leading the way in the smart phone industry

Free Ipod Download

admin — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 11:04:59 +0000

Recently I have been really into ipod downloads for my three ipods been looking at a lot of Free ipod download sites to see what they really offer and if there is such a thing as free music and movie downloads in a digital world like our. After some careful analysis. I was a surprised at what I found out. Firstly the free ipod download sites are not totally free as just go to the site and start downloading or sign up for a free membership. The sites generally offer â€œfreeâ€ ipod downloads in the sense of you dont have to pay to pay each time you download music or movies, how they operate is that you pay a one-time period membership.

A membership will generally cost you between twenty-nine and forty five dollars depending on the membership period you chose. So once you are a member you are free to download with any further cost to you hence the term, free unlimited ipod downloads. Well once you gotten your membership, the next question which comes to mind is what are you going get as a customer of these sites. Well this is where the diversity really comes into play. Even though these site operate on the same principle. They service can be different, it like buying ice-cream but finding your favorite flavor maybe the hard part.

Firstly the customer service can be slow other can be fast. Ideally when going to any of these sites you are looking for a service response of about 12 or 24 hours. Well then here is the hard part how much movie, music and games can you really get. Well practically in a real sense you have unlimited downloads where by you can search with the software programs they provide you with to download any music or movie you want.

However what I found that most of the movies will have to be converted to mp4 format after you download them to your computer so you can play them on your ipod, iphone or ipod touch. Well generally the site will provide you will the software to do this which will make it a easy for you. I am not not a techy and I must say I converted my movie and added to my ipod with ease.

Overall I wont say that these sites will replace iTunes but it is a good alternative to iTunes dowloads where you can get latest music and movies for with out paying each time you download. For information on and reviews on these site. You can use independent review sites such at ipod-vibez as they provide you comprehensive and summary reviews of these services. The particular site which was used in this research exercise was iPodTunesDownloads

Guide To iPhone

admin — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 11:04:58 +0000

lot are going crazy about iPhones, one of the newest Apple products launched in the market. Perhaps youâ€™re one of them. But do you know how to work your way through an iPhone?

Letâ€™s start from the basics. The iPhone is famous for its megasize screen display, which allows you to view messages, pictures, and videos vividly. It has a resolution of 320x480 pixels. Itâ€™s a Quad-band phone, and is equipped with WiFi and EDGE technology, courtesy of its exclusive carrier Cingular Wireless. Moreover, itâ€™s Bluetooth ready, so you can flash that wireless headset.

One controversy hounding it is the battery life. Youâ€™re only given 8 hours of talk time, with a standby period of 250 hours. With its Internet, you can surf for 6 hours and watch videos for 7 hours. Audio playback, however, is close to round the clock.

Aside from its display screen, the iPhone is also famous with its touch screen technology. It doesnâ€™t boast of any stylus but relies on human fingersâ€”literally. With a slight motion and a touch, you can create varied displays and allow the phone to perform varying functions.

Voice messaging is made simpler and more convenient in an iPhone. It follows the same pattern as electronic mails. Instead of having to listen to all voice mails, you get to select those that will somehow matter to you or invoke urgency. You donâ€™t practically waste time on anything. Thereâ€™s also relative ease provided by its virtual keyboard. Its basically QWERTY type so you can check out any misspellings in sending your text messages. Apple also incorporated the Safari Web browser, which gives you the luxury of viewing Web pages the way they are. This is because you can resize them to fit into your screen.

Iphone is like an iPod. You can play and store music, videos, TV shows, and movies. You just have to take note of the audio and video formats an iPhone supports. You can also find a variety of entertainment sources. For one, you can depend on P2P file sharing programs, though this may be risky as they are prone to contain adware, spyware, and viruses. Second, you can download videos and music from iTunes Store for a very minimal fee: $0.99 for every song and $9.99 for every movie. However, since iPhones donâ€™t have download capabilities, you need to store these files first in your hard drive and upload them into the phone. Should they not be in the proper format, you can find some great and effective audio and video converters online.

Indeed, there are a lot of things that you donâ€™t know about iPhones. But then again, mystery drives people to them.

N95 Vs iPhone â€“ 3 Attributes To Be The Most Popular mobile Phone

Much words and conflicting debate are widely spread between Nokia N95 and iPod iPhone which both are landmarks in the mobile phone industry. The two giant phones leave us abounding imaginations and topics of what ultimate form a mobile phone could be and how our life will be changed. By doing a detailed research I find 3 attributes that are shared by most popular phones.

Power functions. A mobile phone is no longer a phone what people think before and should not be limited by the word. New functions drive people empty their pocket to try to own the device.

Both N95 and iPhone are feature-packed phones. iPhone features double touch, integrated google map that are new technologies that never appear on cell before. Function explosion make mobile phones more sophisticated and user-friendly, making it an essential tool for a modern life.

N95 is more prone to be felt like a grand traditional giant mobile phone. It has built-in GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, FM, etc and most of all smart OS and the extremely unparalleled camera which are fascinations of millions of camera phone fanatics. Conversely, iPhone gives us a new fresh feeling of concept phone. iPhone is a phone full of secrets, unlimited access of Internet and superb experience of multimedia given that iPod dominates the world with its music device series.

In terms of attractive and impressive form design, I think N95 outdo iPhone in this aspect. N95 touts itself with the unique dual slide on the traditional yet still popular handy bar. While iPhone looks nothing more than a brick. I mean bulk. History of cell development already told us every fully researched and usability based new design that evoked customer resonance were widely adopted and popularized. Clamshell mobile phone, slide mobile phone both design were very hot at a time and caused shopping rush.

Acknowledging this, many mobile phone brands grip a special form design as one of the advantages to compete their rivals. Take Nokia 7900 Prism as a instance. The prism gains large attentions by its prism keyboard and marked as a stylish phone. Actually 7900 has no significant improvements than its cousins but the special design do adds elegance and beauty.

User friendliness. The king of mobile phone spirit. A cell phone should put user experience as its first and foremost consideration. Nokia believe a mobile phone should give the user freedom of communications. That why all Nokia cells have keyboard for fast text messaging. And this thought also wonderfully represented in N95 dual slide. iPhone had no keyboard but its dual touch and virtual keyboard fill this void. Also noticed, the size of the screen is getting bigger and more colorful. This is following the trend of customer based multimedia entertainment. A big colourful screen is sure to be a unbeaten feature that gives vivid movie showing and game playing. iPhone is the pioneer of this principle by rolling out the 3.5 inch screen device. And Nokia N95, a 2.6 inch screen is seldom seen in other Nokia series.

Now that you have your iPhone you have the ability to listen to hundreds of CD's worth of music wherever you go. By storing music files on your iPhone you are saving plenty of memory space on your computer. You can even watch whole movies and your favorite TV shows on your iPhone.

Before you can do all these incredible things with your new cell phone you need to find a good source for iPhone downloads. This means finding a provider that suits your needs and is affordable at the same time.

Factoring in the Cost

When you look at some iPhone websites you will see that they charge you per song or movie. At first the numbers may not seem like a lot. Once you start to add up those numbers it can reach quite a high number. Especially if you are downloading movies and television shows.

In the long run it doesn't make sense for you to use an iPhone website that charges you for every song and movie you download. Instead you should look for a website that charges you a flat rate. This can vary from a monthly fee, annual fee or lifetime fee. The lifetime fee is the best one to go for if you are looking for the cheapest iPhone downloads.

How to Choose

If you frequently download content into your iPhone then you should definitely look for an iPhone download provider that charges a lifetime fee but gives you unlimited access to download all the content you want. There are of course other things that you should look at besides the cheapest fee.

You need to make sure that the site you use is user friendly. See if you can have a trial run and decide if you can live with the way the service works. Otherwise shop around some more. You don't want a provider that is hard to use, you end up wasting time trying to figure out how to use it instead of enjoying your downloads.

Tech support and customer service are also very important. If the provider does not have adequate tech support then you could be left in the dark when a problem occurs. There should be a number you can call should anything go wrong. You should also check the speed of downloads. What's the fun of waiting around forever for songs and movies to download when there's something else that will do the job quicker?
