downloading birdsongs or calls to Iphone for ringtones

[Linda Andes-Georges]

Hi folks--

There may have been a thread about this in the past but I'm just now paying attention:

Is there a good way to get unusual and COMPLETE birdsongs on one's phone for ringtones? The reviews of the Istore apps are terrible ("nothing but backyard birds; songs very incomplete," etc).

For example, can one download a particularly good song from Xeno-canto, say, and use it as a ringtone? Or does Apple forbid this sort of thing?

I'm just getting used to my phone, so if you answer off the listserv (or on, if you think anyone else is interested), please use tech babytalk.

Thanks!

PS I'm not looking for real exotics, just things like Fox Sparrow, OS Flycatcher, Common Poorwill, Great Gray Owl, European Robin (Redbreast), Hoopoe, Blackbird, etc

A word about this topic as an appropriate use of COBirds...while I don't think it is specifically at odds with any of the directives of the rules of the COBirds list, its seems borderline to me to use the list for a discussion of ring tones. I suggest any further discussion be taken off list.
