Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / UK Group / June 2005Buying ring tones
I see that if I go to Play.com I can get a ringtone for 99p. But is that really all it costs? Doesn't it cost something to download it?

I wouldn't pay for a ringtone if it cost more than 0.0001 penny! you could make your own if you have the sony software > you could make your own if you have the sony software That sounds tempting. But I guess you'd have to be pretty musical, especially for Polyphonics Evi i think you mix them yourself >> you could make your own if you have the sony software > >That sounds tempting.
