Re: WTH?!?! Ringtone royalties?

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.

Totally. I'll be happy to pay 5¢ for every call/ringing-tone as soon as they pay me 5¢ (minimum) in ad fees for promoting their tune.

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