    The artical mentions ringback tones: these are so damnd annoying., they should be banned. I should not have to listen to 50 cent at 20Kbps just because I am calling someone with no taste. Ringtones are fine, but ringback tones invade my space, STOP IT ALREADY, and DONT MAKE ME PAY EXTRA NOT TO HEAR THEM!



    Communications have standards for a reason: If I hear a song on a phone, I would think that my call was picked up by a cue in a pbx somewhere, not awaiting answer on the PSTN

    I agree, it's like a popup ad for your phone that the user is paying the label for*. If phone companies want to offer them, that is fine, but they should also offer me a free way to have them ignored.
    * I also feel strongly about paying a band $35 for a T-shirt so I can advertise for them.
