You can also integrate with companies like Bango to provide a billing solution via WAP (not SMS), where a user tries to get content but is sent through Bango and redirected back to the actual content download page after they've made a payment, for example.

My personal experience - all the effort and time put into it was not worth the return.

Hank said they have 130 mio. downloads a month on just one page. At Euro 0.99 a pop that's around $ 180.000.000.- a month or 2 Billion $ a year. I probably wouldn't want to to start this in the US, for legal reasons, but getting some of the Euro-cake don't sound all too bad.
