iPhone Custom Ring Tones in the Works
Thursday, August 30th, 2007 at 4:00 PM - by Jeff Gamet
Apple has been working with the major record labels to bring songs as custom ring tones to the iPhone, and may be ready to make an announcement as early as next Wednesday’s special media event. The ring tones will be available through the iTunes Store, and customers will be able to choose which part of a song they want for their customized ringer, according to The New York Post.
In addition to purchasing new songs as ring tones, users will also be able to convert tracks they have already purchased. The online music download store will also offer a collection of pre-designed ring tones.
There is no word yet on how much the company will charge for ring tones, and Apple is not offering any comment. All of the labels except for Universal are said to be on board with the deal.
