The most expensive downloads I have seen so far are some spoken word 
tracks on a Who album. Some of these are only of the order of 27 
seconds long, but they still cost 99c, so at over 3c/min they are 
probably among the most expensive individual purchases you can make 
(I can call the UK from the US for less than 3c/min !). Of course the 
30 s preview means that at least you get to hear the whole thing 
before you buy.
