Ringtones - Pain or Pleasure?

I don't know about you, but for the most part, I detest ringtones. Loud rings are even too much for me. The most you will hear coming from my phone is one short beep. Yup. That's it. I never have trouble hearing it, and it does not disrupt anyone else's peace of mind.

I mean, I guess they are a cool way for these record companies to make up for some of the money they loose out on with illegal downloading. But you have to admit, that when you are in line at the bank having a quiet moment with yourself or better yet, at the movies and the person next to you gets a call and Nelly's "Hot in Herre" sounds off - you are less than entertained.

But all in all, they wouldn't be so bad if they weren't so damn loud! Why do we need to be alerted everytime you get a call? I am quite certain that if you are savvy enough to download the tone that you can also figure out how to turn that volume down to an acceptable level.

Ok, now that I've gotten that off my chest, let's hear from you. Am I the only one that feels like this? Where do you stand on this subject?

Let us know by taking this short survey.
