Search by category or tap Search to search for a specific song or artist. Press a tone to see more information or play a preview. To buy a tone, tap the price. I would like a simple answer like: “The tones cost an average of 99 cents each”, because then I probably wouldn't even have to write this page.
But the fact is, ringtone costs vary dramatically depending on who you do business with and how you do it. Some ringtones are free and some ringtones can cost you a lot of money. The idea didn't catch on in the West until 1998, when a Finn named Vesku-Matti Paananen discovered a way to send simple MIDI files to his Nokia phone via smart messaging.

How much do I get paid for my shades? Let's take a moment to fully appreciate this specific moment in music history with a playlist featuring some of the most popular ringtones of the time. Since Android ringtones don't limit the length of time, you can set any song as a ringtone on an Android phone freely, after purchasing the songs on Google Play. After you get the ringtones you want, you can easily follow the guide above to easily set up the ringtone on your iPhone or Android. Windows Windows users should use the Fried Cookie Ringtone Maker, as it allows you to convert a full-length song into a 30-second M4A file, which is Apple's patented file extension for iPhone ringtones.
Service providers kept a portion of sales and largely controlled distribution, while the music industry charged licensing fees for ringtones based on popular songs. You can buy the songs directly online and transfer the song to your iPhone or Android. In addition, you can purchase ringtone apps that will be installed on your phone to obtain ringtones. The Android ringtone is easy to create because it has no time limit, and you only need to convert the song to the MP3 format and set it as a ringtone in your Android phone.
Once you have the ringtones on your iPhone, you can transfer them from one iPhone to another for sharing. However, if you think that buying ringtones costs more than you can handle, then you might consider downloading or creating ringtones yourself. A new Billboard ringtone chart listed the most popular songs, and 50 Cent's “In Da Club” took home Billboard's first ringtone of the year award in 2004. If that's the case, it's my fault, but I looked back at the app's description and I don't see anything after going through it in detail, so it's fair to assume that it's an Apple-branded ringtone app, just like the iPhone's App Store, but with more selections.
