Mobile Phone Ringtones
By Lee Werrell
Mobile phone 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 mobile phone ringtone ranges from £1.99 to over £10. Most singers and performers provide rights for their melodies to be converted to ringtones versions. Survey shows that about 26% of mobile phone owners downloaded at least once a ringtone. Many people downloading more than one as you can customise and set the phone to play different ringtones for a specific caller.
For instance if your mum is calling the mobile 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 or True Tone mobile phone 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. One of the best and up to date in my opinion is http://www.zaxx.polyphonic-ringtone-ringtones.com/
The selection is per specific mobile phone model and the process is simple, fast and easy. You select a ringtone, choose your mobile 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 that the mobile phone ringtone download party will continue to expand almost exponentially in the next few years with the advent of Java Games, mp3 tones and picture messaging, colour backgrounds and individual logos etc, more mobile phones will become an MP3 players of real music and other cool features.
This is why experts predict that over £6bn will be spent on downloading ringtones and peripheral or ancillary services. You can also be part of this revolution, and earn money from it too, with all the coaching, training or explanation available absolutely free.

Millions of people everyday pay for ringtones to be sent directly to their mobile phone via SMS. So many people are unaware that if they have an iTunes or Napster account for downloading legal music they can transfer ringtones to their mobile for free. All you need is a blue tooth dongle. Cheaply obtained for around £10, they can offer unlimited ringtones and multimedia content. For instance, if you have pictures of a recent party on your mobile, you can send them to your pc and display then as your wallpaper or screensaver. These are available from www.Zaxx.co.uk
If you are looking to be that little bit more adventurous about your mobile phone ringtone, you could always download software which would allow you to create your own music then transfer it to your mobile phone. But remember, if the song isn't the best, you may find yourself getting funny looks from the kids on the bus when someone calls you. But isn't that what ringtones are all about, uniqueness? Many ringtone advertising schemes use uniqueness as their target, but everyone followed the craze of the notorious crazy frog. So what ringtone reflects your personality? I will go with the classical English telephone and be boring, what will you choose? So stick with downloading from http://www.zaxx.polyphonic-ringtone-ringtones.com/.
