Waking Up Is Hard To Do (But not with Mobile Ringtones!)
Ringtones are evolving from being call and SMS alert tones to the sound replacing the boring default alarm tone for mobile users’ morning wake up call. It’s no surprise since most mobile subscribers are also music fans.
A recent study showed that almost seventy percent (70%) of UK adults opt to use mobile music instead of the old fashioned alarm clock to wake them up. Talking about getting up hip and in style!? Waking up to the song that caused your last song syndrome! Definitely better than the timer’s cuckoos.
Hmmm… yesterday Usher, today Kanye West, tomorrow Snoop Dogg! How about that!
