With the market for
ringtones encompassing everything from rap to
porn, it was only a matter of time before church-sanctioned religious tones got into the mix. St. Petri Church in
Hamburg, Germany, is funding repairs to its organ through the sale of ringtones based on hymns. Let's see; if Christian
podcasts are called "Godcasts," what are religious ringtones called? Ringhymns? Holytones? (We assume the Satanic
ones are Hell's Bells, of course.)

They're called hymntones, of course.
So I went and listened hoping for a very BIG sound, but was disappointed.
Didn't sound like something that couldn't come out of my duaghter's Casio keyboard.
can't wait for confession via sms. maybe McChrist's need some new logistics studies...
Pfff.. who pays for ringtones anymore. http://www.smashthetones.com/
Lol, are these ringtones the future maybe? :) Atleast you could target a whole new ringtone market with them hehe! I think i rather stick to http://www.getpolyphonicringtones.com with over 20 000 ringtones available for download...
