Push Ringtones

Wow, I can see the abuse of this now..

Techdirt: 'Push Ringtones' Establish A Whole New Level Of Pointlessness

Well, thats quite something. I would really love to make a couple-a-people listen to all kinda crap before they answer their phone.

Coming to the point - As the article said, it might be fascinating and a new improvement but when considered on a social basis, it will fail. Forget pointlesness, I feel it can be used in the most abusive manner possible.

Think abt it.

:icon6: I so would have abused that in School/College. I highly doubt it will sell or take off though.

[InZan3]

I would buy it ! lol

[Liselotte]

bad bad bad. just bad

[omerta]

im sure this will be popular

[SiK]

Lame. Who really has so much free time they go around thinking of stupid ideas like this.

[Liselotte]

yeah, for example, they have this nasty ring tones and they try to push ringtone you, with everyone in your home can here it, wat would they say or do to you? this idea is just lame.

[George]

the old panasonic GD92 had that..
but you could only use it with another GD92 and only with preinstalled sounds
i dont think GSM can handle that...

[Pieman]

It would take like half an hour to stream the sound you want to another guys phone.

So, /fail

[Avenged]

that is just...no...

that fails.

[powamonger]

guess the phone industry is getting desperate! such a lame idea, you custimise your OWN ringtones, not others hehe.

[Suicide]

I don't use ma phone much im not a phoney fan of them. Half of the "ringtones" that was commented in that i was like O.o wtf is that?

Well, the idea might be lame but you gotta accept that is evillllll.. If it's really out there in the market - I wouldnt hesitate to go get it. Atleast give it a shot before saying its bad. :D

[BladeX]

Then i will use slient mode..

Having different ringtones for different callers has been around for a long time, but this is just... hmm.

It isn't going to work well with the POTS though, as that uses a specific high-voltage signal to activate the ringer which is different in each phone.
