Sprint to cut mobile phone song price to 99 cents

According to Reuters, Sprint plans to cut its digital music download fee to 99 cents per song, matching prices at iTunes. It currently charges $2.49 per song.

"The price cut is an about-face for Sprint, which has long maintained that consumers are willing to pay a premium to buy songs on the go. It has sold 15 million wireless song downloads since it launched its music service in late 2005.

By comparison, iTunes has sold more than 2 billion songs since its inception in 2003."
