How hackneyed can you get, with a headline? Oh well…now you know what Thomas Dolby is doing…making some cool, retro ringtones.
Some interesting figures: Retro RingTones typically charges the phone carrier $500 to produce the ringtone and $2,000 more if it’s actually used in a phone. If a company wants to use the ringtone melody in a commercial, other fees apply—and if it becomes a jingle, a company may be charged $200,000 or more.
