If you are a lucky owner of an iPhone (as I definitely am) you have the opportunity to listen to dozens of CDs and watch hundreds of movies. Moreover, you can save the valuable space on the hard drive of your computer by saving the media on the iPhone. Another option is watch the favorite movies and TV shows life.

But before doing all these amazing things you have to find credible and reliable sources for iPhone downloads. What does that mean? Basically, it means finding the sites that will supply you with the required data and which are affordable for you.

Pay attention to the prices

Some web-pages for iPhone charge money per song (or per movie etc.) At first, the number may seem small enough to buy the media you like, but if try summing them up, you will find out that all the files you like cost a fortune. It is even more true for long TV shows or movies, because usually they are much more costly than short songs.

So you seen that if you plan to use the site often it is stupid to choose the one that charged per downloaded item. Instead of it, look for a site with a flat-rate charge (it can be a weekly, monthly, yearly etc. fee). But in the long run the best offer is the lifetime fee, because it will definitely help you save money.

How do I Choose?

If you plan to download the content frequently and in large quantities, you’d better look for a site with a lifetime fee and unlimited access to downloads. It means that you are not overcharged if you want to download content all round the clock 7 days a week.

You should stop your choice on the site with a user-friendly interface. How to decide whether the site has one? It should possess a free-trial feature. You don’t need a service that is basically complicated to use, do you? Why find a service where you will spend the majority of your time trying to find out how it works instead of downloading the content?

Pay attention to such features as Tech support and customer service. If the service has neither you might be left with unsolved problem totally alone. These must be a phone number where you can call in case anything goes wrong. Moreover, take into consideration the speed of downloading. If it is not high enough, you don’t want to wait for a song to download for a week, do you?

A few days ago I published a list of reliable iPhone sources. You can check it up here.

Here are my basic tips for choosing a download source for your iPhone. May be you have any additional suggestions?
