Sending a busy signalling on D channel (priindication=outofband) will go 
back into the telephone network exactly the same way the called party 
was really busy... so no charge, busy tone, not completed call on the 
caller side.

Just a couple of notes about priindication=inband.
- Usually sending in-band audio on a "not connected" state is not 
allowed unless a special setup is done by the isdn provider.
- While sending in-band audio or busy signalling on D channel will make 
no difference (from the caller perspective) if the call is originated 
from an analog pstn line anything else (gsm->isdn, sip->isdn...) will 
fail to get a proper state for that call.
Definitely I will never use it unless it is required, like the mandatory 
price information message to be sent **before** connection if you run a 
"value added" incoming service billed to the caller.
