Basically, whenever a phone rings,
the ring tone would be replaced by
a
Minimercial™; a 2-15 second
commercial. (Patent Pending)
Users of this service would receive
a discount on their phone bill, or

Or they could make it a ring option on your phone. Of course the other options would include; nails on a chalkboard, tarring Styrofoam, ect. Then people would gladly choose commercials over the other rings. |

Welcome to the halfbakery, [grahamhgreen]. |

I'd choose "Nails on a chalkboard" just so that I could have my own seat on the train! |

(Then I'd switch it back to a normal ringtone) |

Unfortunately, this fails to consider the reason ring tones were a useful function in the first place: not to show off, but rather to be able to identify whose phone was ringing. |

Back when I had an Audiovox phone which let me key in my own ring tone, I used the Prince of Denmark March; I don't think I've ever heard that elsewhere. On my current phone I have the opening 12-note pattern from /Starlight Express/. |
