Now all we need is for Apple to allow us to change all the tones used on the iPhone and not just a select amount. Sitting in the same room as other iPhone owners is not fun…..whose phone beeped?

Unless Apple has recently locked it out, it is possible to convert unprotected audio to an AAC file and rename the extension to M4R and load it into iTunes.

Mac users can use Garageband to make ringtones too. Drag an audio clip in, edit and export to iTunes.
