About this ringtones issue in iTunes.
Songs as ringtones is one of the worst experience that mobile phones have brought to us : it's an attention seeker feature, nothing more. Having a song playing when this given person calls might mean something to you, and that's fine, but for the 2/5/20 people around, it's just intrusive and embarrassing.
If you don't get the point, picture yourself in the line at the grocery store ; the guy next to you receives a call. Yeah, he's a metal fan. And metal is good when it's played loud, you see. He looks at his phone, sees who's calling and doesn't look too happy about it. The song keeps playing like there was a grinder in there. He rolls his eyes, groans, takes another look, says something like "shit", looks at you, smiles and doesn't understand why this expression of pain in your face is growing into a rage rictus. Is he going to be your friend ? Well, if you still can consider it could have been much worse, maybe. Maybe not.
So, having to pay twice the price to get one ? As unfair as it can be, it's still not expensive enough. Save our soundscape, make it ten times.
