Both are free, and in version 1.1.0 you get a version that runs on the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and the latest version of iPod Touches. With this version it also recognizes more extensions and is optimized for faster decoding, while also allowing you to delete files from within the application so you don't have to go through iTunes.</p>
