Apple gives official route to creating your own custom iPhone ringtones. Of course, they only sanction it for “your original songs”, but it’s a big step forward from the lockdown a couple of months ago.

Good summary of what Apple would be up against even if they *wanted* to let you turn your MP3s into ringtones for free.

Free app from Rogue Amoeba which marks AAC files as “Ringtones” as far as iTunes is concerned. Tested last night, and I now have a lovely chunk of Arctic Monkeys playing when I get called.

OS X GUI which makes it a piece of piss to add your own ringtones to the iPhone. Those wily hackers!

Add ringtones to your iPhone in 23 easy steps. I think I’ll give Apple one firmware/iTunes upgrade to introduce the feature themselves before I go hacking around like this.
