Ringtones for cell phones are a huge business. The majority of cell phone
owners have a number of ringtones that they can choose from that come supplied
with their cell phone. This enables everyone to personalize the sounds that
their phone emits when they receive a phone call or a text message on their
phone. However, many people do not like, or get bored quickly with these ringtones and look for something a little more interesting.

Computers and the
internet in particular have led to an explosion in the complexity and
availability of the latest ring tones. There are many companies that advertise
ring tones that a person can download for use on their phone. Some of these ringtones have a one-off charge for downloading them, but many are part of a
subscription service where the person is able to receive a number of different
ringtones each week or month.
The latest chart hits are the most commonly downloaded cell phone ring tones,
and the trendiest kids are constantly changing them to ensure that they have the
top songs signaling a phone call. It doesn’t stop there – there has been an
explosion in the number of specifically designed songs created solely for ring
tones. This was the situation with the Crazy Frog ringtone. Ironically, this
became so popular that it was actually released as a normal music single and hit
the top of the song charts in a number of countries. It also received the ward
from many people as the most annoying ring tone ever!
There are software programs that allow you to create your own cell phone ring
tone from any audio file. These don’t have to be particularly melodic anymore,
and a lot of catchphrases from popular TV shows have become cell phone ringtones.
Cell phone ringtones have been debated by many consumer groups who feel that
their annoyance levels far outweigh their usefulness, particularly as the
majority of cell phones have a vibrating function to silently alert the owner of
an incoming call or message. This has proved such an issue that there are a
large number of restaurants, and bars that actually fine people if their cell
phone ring tone is heard by other people. These fines are often donated to
charity so something good can come out of the annoying noise!

How To Make Free Ringtones
if Your Phone Utilizes Realtones by Scott Johns
If your phone uses realtones, it is very easy to get them for free. A realtone
is usually just a chunk of an mp3. So, basically, it is an mp3.
All you need to do is download an mp3 editor, cut out the chunk you want (unless
your phone memory can handle the entire mp3), send it to your phone, and set it
as your default ringtone. You should be able to accomplish this via email,
bluetooth, or ftp.
If you have T-Mobile or another carrier which blocks you from doing this, they
can't stop you from bluetooth-ing it to yourself. This is covered in the
article, downloading games, at phonestop.net. It works the same as games, except
you don't have to install and run them.
As I mentioned earlier, if you have the memory available, you don't need to cut
up the mp3; just send it to your phone and set it as your default ringtone.
Most people don't realize how easy its becoming to get free ringtones. Its about
time you don't have to pay for your ringtones.
