Verizon, the first to offer U.S. video services to mobile phones with data speeds similar to home computers, will charge $3.99 for each music video download on top of the $15 a month it plans to charge for V Cast.
Mobile providers around the world see third generation (3G) data services, such as video downloads and Web surfing, as an alternative way to keep growing revenue as the price of mobile phone calls continues to decline. Verizon’s V Cast was first announced earlier this month at the Consumer Electronics Show.
