Not sure to post the message here. But I'm new to this.
I don't understand the difference in price between the ringtones and games sites for your mobile. I do understand that there is a price difference, but not that much.
Example: WWW.MOBIDEL.COM offers the latest ringtones at
� 0,99 and java games at � 2,99, while most other sites charge around double the amount. I saw the ringtone sunclub/jump and the java game SWAT SNIPER for that price, so not only crap games.
cheers,
A large, more popular channel may have better deals with actual content producers/developers/owners than a smaller one (and thus give end-customers lower prices through volumes).
I'm not saying that it is the case with your particular example, but there are sellers that sell stuff they didn't pay for themselves, so they can keep lower prices than those that pay someone for the rights to resell the same or similar content.
And in some cases they're simply just priced as high as the seller thinks the market will bear (attempting to maximize profits that way).
If you really want to know how the right price is determined, read this entertaining article: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/CamelsandRubberDuckies.html
