I really hate awful ringtones. The ones that come with your phone I believe are terrible, and I think they are purposely bad to make you spend money on the provider’s tones. And then, you pay $3–5 for 30 seconds or less of music when you can get the same song for 99 cents on iTunes — and have the entire song! So forget about all that mess.
