Downloads $0.03 each
This is probably a scam, and will certainly gain the pukes at the RIAA if it isn't, but all that aside, browsing it does show the appeal of something reasonably priced. iTunes is fantastic, and $9.99 a CD is better than $17.99, but it is dishonest to say that after removing packaging and distribution CDs should cost more than $3.99 or $4.99 to download - so songs should be .025 or so.
This Russian service sets them based on size, from approximately .01 to .08 cents. Personally, if people report that this is legit (under Russian Law and financially - although I would use Paypal and never give anyone in eastern europe a credit card) and the songs are good quality, I'll be burning up my DSL line very soon. Anyone who knows more, please add a comment.

Considering all the Beatles bootlegs they're selling, something tells me it ain't that legit.
