free ring tONS

Free ringtonesMost free ringtones available on the internet are illegal, subject to copyright restrictions or crap (sounds awful). You can get free ringtones to your phone if you compose your own ringtones on your pc and transfer the ringtones to your phone. If you have a phone with a built in ringtone composer you can also compose your own free ringtones. In most of the cases you also need software and cables to transfer the "free ringtones" to your phone. These things aren´t free so actually there are no such thing as free ringtones!Free MIDI ringtonesIf you compose your own MIDI tones or find free MIDI ringtones on the internet you can download them to your phone using a cable or infrared connection. You also need the right software for sending the ringtones to the phone. Nokia and other mobile phone brands often have their own phone manager programs and some of them include multimedia convertors and other prorams to manage ringtones and graphics. There are also many third party softwares. With these softwares you can change the format of the ringtone, from MP3 to midi, midi to RTTTL, wav to midi etc. Note that MIDI is a much lower quality sound format than MP3 or WAV. A format change from mp3 or wav to midi degrades the recording appreciably.Free MP3 ringtonesThe internet is full of free MP3 songs and tunes.
