Ringtones are like hot cakes for the youngsters, the market is
huge, estimated world wide sales of $ 2.5 Billion per year. The
cost of a ringtone is ranging from $0.99 - $2.99. Most singers
and performers provide rights for their melodies to be converted
to ringtones versions. Survey shows that about 26% of cell phone
owners downloaded at least once a ringtone. Many people
downloading more than one as you can customize and set the phone
to play different ringtones per specific caller.
For instance if mom is calling the cell phone will play a
certain ringtone and another one for dad and for your girl
friend a different one so you don't have to guess who is calling
you, it is totally personalized per caller.
There are four types of ringtones:
* Monophonic ringtones play a melody of a song one note at a
time, with no harmonies.
* Polyphonic tones add harmonies to the song.
* Real-life ringtones include voices, quotes, or other strange,
real sounds.
* Master tones are compressed clips of actual songs, as heard on
the radio(not just their melodies or a simple harmonic version).
How do you download a ringtone?
There many web sites that offer a huge selections of lyrics and
songs, themes from movies, hip-hop, pop, dance, singers,
classics and you name it.
The selection is per specific cell phone model and the process
is simple, fast and easy. You select a ringtone, choose your
cell phone maker and model, you see on the screen an SMS code,
you type it in your mobile phone and send, then an SMS message
is sent to you with your ringtone to be installed in two short
steps process.
It is estimated though that the ringtone download party will
cool down a bit in the next few years as more cell phones will
become an MP3 players of real music and other cool features.
