Re: DRM failed again...

They (Verizon) fail...I can load my own MP3 clips for ringtones using the Motorola Phone Tools without paying for any of the useless selection they have for ringtones...

I used to be able to do that with my old Verizon phone and BitPIM. When it came time to renew my contract, I got a new phone. Lo and behold, Verizon has locked BitPIM out of writing to the phone so I can't upload new ringtones.

I did find a workaround with MyxerTones.com which lets me send MP3 files to my phone as Picture Messages (which can then be saved on the phone as a ringtone). This winds up costing me $0.25 for each ringtone. It's not as good of a deal as "upload for free using BitPIM", but it's still a better deal than the $1.99 per ringtone that Verizon charges.
