Question Ringtone Copyright

Rather than paying Jamster 3 sheets for a ring tone whats to stop me ripping my fave tune to the p.c. and then use the 1st 10 secs as a ring tone, should the Stone Roses be getting 0.001p everytime my phone rings??

Another Internet business model dies .

I hope this isn't illegal - as it's what I do if I want a musical ring tone .

Nobody cares. I mean how many people record from the T.V. ? If you read the copyright notice before or after any broadcast, they deem it illegal to copy their work in 'ANY' way. So why sell VCR, Recordable DVD etc in the shops


As long as you are not making any financial gain, i'm sure they won't be knocking down your door for using a 30 second sample on a phone

Surely they'd ring you up rather than knock your door

There are some cracking intros out there that make great ring tones, just wish I could edit the track for a 10 sec clip of say a guitar riff or a chorus halfway through a track.

This weeks ringtone, Bartender and the thief, great intro , you certainly know your phone's ringing..

I was looking at it from the Public Broacast aspect which would mean the Roses would want royalties from me....
