That is hard to answer.  Basically if I have a block of DIDs I can sell
them on didx.  If you goto their main page and click billing you will
see they offer the service to the owner of the did to get paid by didx
for setup, monthlu and "per min charges".  It appears that its upto the
seller of the DID as to exactly what is charged.  Their page is not
exactly forthcoming with this information so its unclear exactly what
you would be charged.

The reality is that routing calls is not free, with VoIP the cost can
approach free but it will never be free.  When it comes to PSTN
interconnection there are other issues that come into play in addition
to the routing via the internet.
