Finally, Apple has allowed a whole slew of ringtone makers onto the App Store. That may be another important change for app developers. Course it is not a big deal, but it is a major victory for app store developers as such a thing was previously disallowed.

Soon after the iPhone was launched, Apple added ringtones to the iTunes Store. Users were initially able to create custom ringtones from over 500,000 participating, licensed tracks. The feature required customers to purchase a participating song from iTunes, and then spend another 99 cents to make up to a 30-second segment of the song into a ringtone. While now, there are no less than 5 different ringtone making apps sitting in the App Store. If you want to create special ringtones for your iPhone, all you need to do is to download one of the apps.
