2004, Vodafone D2 is now vastly expanding its capacities for this
value-added service based on ECT’s Ring Back Tone Application. ECT,
Europe’s market leader for intelligent value-added services in
fixed-line and mobile networks, won the follow-up contract for the
realisation of the project. “The ring back tone service has been very
successful across Europe and has emerged as a profitable application
for mobile carriers,” said Dr. Marshall E. Kavesh, CEO and co-founder
of the ECT Group. “I am very pleased that the successes we predicted
for this innovative service have been realised so quickly.” [PRWEB Mar

Render Ring Tones with PHP
Render Ring Tones with PHP
05/12/2004 07:08 AMPHP Composer: I nominate
this as the most uselessly cool programming tool I've ever seen.
This class is meant to render images of the musical score of ring
tones notes used in cellular phones, defined in the RTTL format.
It parses the RTTL ring tones string to extract the information
about the author, duration, scale, beats per minute and the notes of
the tune.
Then it renders the score image using a customizable logo and an
appropriate TrueType font to render the notes in the score.
RTTL, it turns out, stamds for "Ring Tone Transfer Language." You
can find out more about the protocol here.

Ringback Tones
04/18/2005 03:08 PM
Ringback tones, which aren't terribly new, are little snippets
of music that play instead of the usual ringing you hear when calling
someone’s cell phone. Verizon just teamed up with Universal Music,
they of Mariah Carey and U2 fame, in order to offer 500+ beloved hits.
Verizon uses the universal iconography of music—dancing
silhouettes—to explain.
Verizon announced ringbacks last November for $1.99 a year plus a
99 cent monthly subscription. I can’t wait to regale my friends and
family with a tinny ringback rendition of Baby Bash's Super
Saucy.

Will Walmart's Entrance Signal Download
Store Price Wars?
Will Walmart's Entrance Signal Download
Store Price Wars?
12/18/2003 09:54 PMI've been wondering how long the $0.99/song price for music could
hold. Already, some say that the dollar a song price is
too
much, and basic competition would suggest that the prices will get
driven down over time. The floor at this point is the $0.67 that the
labels demand from each song sold. So far, the various download
stores have mostly (though not completely) held the line at a dollar.
Sooner or later, though, you had to know that someone would realize
they could get more attention by going lower, and who else but the
leader in "everyday low pricing" Walmart? They're
testing their new download store with songs at $0.88 per song.
Hello, price wars! Of course, they know that they'll be losing money
on this offering, but they see it as a loss leader to get people to
buy other stuff at Walmart.com. So, if the price war continues, at
what point will someone realize that, since they're just using the
music as a loss leader anyway, they don't mind paying the $0.67
themselves. For example, Apple already says they're losing
money on iTunes, but more than making it up on iPods. Wouldn't they
sell more iPods if the music were even cheaper? It's an optimization
question of "how low do you go?" until the cost of the music outweighs
the benefit of selling more other stuff. However, if the music really
is acting as incentive to buy other (high priced, high margin) goods,
you'd think they'll eventually be willing to go pretty damn low.
