Ringtone services and software on mobile phones has become extremely popular over the last few years. The problem is that many services make you pay close to $3 for real audio songs. This tip will show you how to get any song you want on your mobile phone to be used as a ringtone, courtesy of a great website called smashTheTONES. Not only does it work for ringtones, but also pictures, and soon, even screen savers.

We recently reviewed Real’s Rhapsody music service and gave it a pretty good review. Today, we’ll continue our music service coverage with a brief review of MSN Music. Does it live up to other offerings?

I will be reviewing the MSN Music service shortly, but for a limited time, buy a song on MSN Music and get 5 free! Offer expires July 10, 2005 and is limited to one use per account. If you want more free music, I guess you could always create more accounts.

Have two iPods in your household but only one computer with which to sync them with? Have no clue what to do? Never fear, TipMonkies is here! The process is simple enough that anyone could do it in just a few seconds, it’s just not well documented.

For the most part, I gave up traditional radio long ago. I simply grew tired of programmed music, and of hearing the same songs over and over again. At first, I relied mostly on my CD collection, but with the popularity of MP3’s and digital music players, I always had a steady stream of music to listen to. No longer would I have to hear the same thing every thirty minutes. So what does a podcast have to do any of this and just what the hell are they?

Some people have already voiced their concerns about this site’s iTunes/iPod coverage (relax it’s only been two days!) so in turn, I have decided to cover another service, Real’s Rhapsody. With a large song library and different payment choices, Rhapsody shows great potential.

I began reading about audiobooks a few years ago, but never really paid attention. As an English major and writing minor at the university, I always had to read lots of books during the semester. Granted, I was never one to study much, but I did spend enough time reading textbooks and articles that I was prevented from doing other things. Recently, I learned that a good friend of mine had begun to learn Mandarin Chinese, and not through any conventional means, but through an audiobook. This article discusses the importance of audiobooks, and provides some valuable resources in attaining some.
