What's the cheapest, fastest, most painless way to accept PayPal for digital content?

I am releasing the following project: http://www.8bitchristmas.com

All the music streams for free, but I want to give people the opportunity to buy an inexpensive digital copy of all the music and some added content, probably in a zip file. I see this page but I don't have time to go through this: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/solutions_dgd I'd rather hear advice with someone with experience setting this up.
Tip for best answer: M$9.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I have a little experience with E-Junkie and I think they'd be a great fit for what you need. They specialize in downloadable digital content, so there would be no "hacking something together" to fit your exact needs. Take a few minutes to check them out, I think you'll like what you find.

I set up a free account (120 days free!) using a promo code from: http://www.retailmenot.com/view/e-junkie.com

Hope that helps! Good luck!

Consider Payloadz.com, paypal also has a special pricing for goods selling for very low amounts, usually less than $2.00 on certain accounts when PayPal is the sole payment solution offered to customers for micropayments transactions.

I've been using Payloadz to sell digital PDF files for a while now. It's a great way for me to charge a few dollars for a digital document. Users pay me with Paypal, then they get a url good for 48 hours, and from there they can download the files. It's done automatically. In my case I'm selling hyperlinked PDF versions of my books for $3.50. The alternative to Payloadz is to send a file out by hand for each purchase, which would be insane.
