Glen Burnie, MD | WTH?!?! Ringtone royalties?
Seriously, have they stooped that low to get more blood out of a turnip?
I can see all the cell phone companies stop selling ringtones and/or opening up the devices so people can make their own. |

| I don't get it. Ringtones are what? 15 to 20 seconds long. And now they want royalties for a little clip to play on a phone. The same clip everytime. No one really hears the song. Maybe the music industry should be paying ringtone makers for making small music clips and advertising the music.
Next they will be after people that whistle or hum tunes. |

My favorite ring-tone: "Take This Job And Shove It!" (disclaimer: I don't actually use ring-tones) |
