canadian397 Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 Anyone else realized this? Teens are willing to pay $1.50 for a ringtone but won't pay $0.99 to download a song off of MSN Music. LoL, my mom just pointed that out to me :rofl: . I just downloaded Sandstorm by Da Rude and Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple as my ringers for my phone :p - Barret Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/264463-anyone-else-realized-this/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrawn Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 :rolleyes: Doubtless, but one downloads only a few ringtones per month, whereas a budget of only a few tracks off MSN music per month would be really boring.

canadian397 Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 99 cents per song is good $1.50 per ringtone is a little iffy Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/264463-anyone-else-realized-this/#findComment-585199729 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylejn Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I download ringtones for free, so I'm smarter than everyone. :p Really, all I do is just find a MIDI of a song I like, cut it down to a 30 second snippet in Quicktime Pro, and upload said snippet to some personal webspace. Browse to it on my phone, and I'm done. Takes 5 minutes for the whole process.

SerialStorm Posted December 30, 2004 Share Posted December 30, 2004 I wonder why you pay for ringtones when you get a free ringtone for certain sites... I have gotten 4/5 ringtones from iguana Ringtone service (Search yahoo for iguana ringtone) They give one free ringtone or operator logo or screensaver for each account.
