Ringtones are too expensive

I can buy a song for 88c at walmart. 5-10 sec ringtone costs $2-3. Too expensive!

Don't buy them

Why complain that ringtones are expensive? I think those ringtones aren't all that they're cracked up to me. Those specialized ringtones annoy me when I'm somewhere and I hear the phones play music or talk rather than hear a computerized ring. Just my opinion, those ringtones are all wrong, but that's just me.

I don't have to pay for ringtones while I have paid for CD or song. I can just buy a song for 88c at WalMart, and turn the best part of the song into ringtones on my phone, which sells for $2-3.

I can make ringtones out of any audio, even the personal recording. The best ringtone and it's FREE!
