Let me start and say: I love Apple. I love their products and their creative approach to everything.
BUT… their music industry partners have taught them some uncool tricks. The latest one is the iPhone ringtone service. With the new version of iTunes, you can take songs you purchased on iTunes (well, some of them at least) and convert them into ringtones for an additional $0.99
So far not cool but not that bad, considering all the music industry BS about how legally playing the song to anyone else is also a violation etc. But where it really gets annoying is that you can’t create ringtones from your own music files, and if you use a 3rd party app to do so, iTunes will delete them on the next sync. Meaning, If i created MY OWN music using, let’s say, Apples own Garage Band, I can’t use it as a ringtone on my iPhone. Just for the record, Most Cell Phones allow you to use any audio file on the device as a ringtone.
Steve, not cool!!!
I was consideing getting a iPhone and it just came to me… do iPhones even have a camera. I haven’t seen then on the adds. Thanks.

Absolutely agree! All those endless ringtones are getting on my nerves. There are so many ways to get ringtones, except bying them for $0,99, that it becomes absolutely useless!
Definetly their is point no point in wasting your $0.99.Their are plenty of other options where you can get them for FREE!
@Connaa: Yes, but I’ve read many reviews that show it not having very good quality. Also, it can’t record videos.
