Ringtones USA Introduces Fair Pricing for Ringtones, Mobile Games

New Mobile Content Warehouse Gives Consumers Purchasing Flexibility
Downloading music over the internet is not the only thing you can do nowadays. Cell phone companies such as Verizon Wireless have developed their websites recently to contain ringtone downloading capabilities. Most of the people I know have been using websites such as http://www.ringophone.com/, http://www.besttones.com/, and http://www.ringtonesusa.com/ for years now.
The website ringtonesusa has started charging their customers for each individual download rather than a set monthly rate. Ringtone websites have had trouble in the past getting people to subscribe to their monthly membership. Although memberships can be as cheap as $2.50 a month these clubs often limit the amount or number of downloads per month. At ringtonesusa you can download videos, animations, realtones, games and more along with just downloading ringtones to your cellphone. Each item costs between 99 cents and 8 bucks (for games), and any ringtone you want will run you $1.99. This is a better way of selling their product because you are not obligated to use your set amount of downloads per month, rather you can download a bunch in one week then not revisit the site for another year. The website is easy to use with features like “What model phone do you have” questions which direct you to the ringtones which you are able to download.
I like this new way of pricing downloadable ringtones because I can get as many or few as I want while at the same time knowing exactly how much I am spending. DO YOU LIKE THIS METHOD OF PRICING?...... comments are cool……

I think it all depends on the person's preferance. If I could get a service that only charged me say $5 a month and gave me a couple of different ringtones, I might be convinced to sign up, but most of the ones I've seen charge at least twice that. The other way of pricing seems like a much more practical way of doing things for me. I only have the urge to download a new ringtone once every couple of months, so it's nice to just pay that 1.99 right then and be done with it. Alot of younger people, especially teens, like to have the latest rings and screensavers on their phones, so the monthly charge probably works better for them.
