Sprint Music Store Review
The good: The Sprint Music Store offers instant gratification for digital audio lovers, and for every track you purchase, you get a copy for your phone and for your PC. Most compatible phones have stereo speakers.
The bad: Each track from the Sprint Music Store is priced at a premium of $2.50. Yet, to use a track as a ring tone, you have to pay an additional $2.50. In order to play purchased music, you must access the Music Store.
The bottom line: The Sprint Music Store fits the bill if you're looking for instant gratification on the digital music front, but the $2.50-per-track price tag is hard to swallow.
