When you click on Download (https://www.didiom.com/download/join.aspx), you should see this at the bottom of the page – “Already registered? Log in to your account here and choose an account type (free/premium). If you choose a free account, click Download to get to the download page. If you choose a premium account, you will be redirected directly to the Download page when your payment is complete.”

My understanding is that if you click sign in and then Download, you wil be able to download the Pro apps.

There’s another way to do it. See question #6 at http://www.didiom.com/faq/didiom.aspx – “Can I download Didiom Pro directly to my phone? Yes. Use your phone’s internet browser to go to m.didiom.com and simply click on your phone model. To use Didiom Pro, you will also need to download Didiom Pro Desktop at didiom.com/pro.exe and make sure it monitors the folders where you store your audio collection.”

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the input, I might consider upgrading but I can not even test out the new Pro version. I have on my Blackberry and PC the old version which will not connect anymore, assuming because I need to upgrade to Pro but when I login to Didiom.com and click on download it wants me to signup, which I already have an account so I click my account and it shows me as the Free but only offers me to upgrade to 1 of 2 pay versions before I can download the Pro versions to my PC and BB. So I am not even able to use the free version nor test it before purchase the upgrade.

I beta tested Didiom and upgraded to Pro. Pro is a league of its own. It’s significantly faster and stabler. They also did a great job improving the streaming quality and adding new features, like Wi-Fi support and OTA downloading from PC to BB. I think the price tag is more than fair for such a groundbreaking service that is completely free of any sort of advertising.

I think it’s Bull***t that companies have you beta test something for months and when they get it all tweaked they then make it a Pro version and start to charge you!!!

I was one of the beta testers and think poorly of Didiom now, none of my other beta testing has charged for the app after beta testing. The app is not worth a monthly fee. No app that I have found yet is worth a monthly fee!

But maybe that is just my cheap a**

Feel better after rant
