iPhoneRingToneMaker Supports Protected AAC

Monday September 3, 2007 11:46 pm PDT by Arnold Kim
The maker of iPhoneRingToneMaker let us know that the newest version (1.3.1) was released on Monday with the new feature of support for Protected AAC songs purchased through iTunes.

The previous versions could not import/clip these songs, but the new version is said to offer this support under Windows XP.

iPhoneRingToneMaker is a shareware application for Windows but offers a full demo version.

Apple - please, please let us use normal MP3s and such for ringtones. Not all of us want R Kelley shouting out at us when we get a call in a business meeting.

You know, I would think that policy of charging for the song and then charging o use it as a ringtone would violate the fair use doctrine of the current copyright law. After all the fair use doctrine allows me to change the form of copyrighted music so that I can play it on a different device. This dates back to the cassette recorder. Courts have held that making a tape recording of an album is a permitted act because it is still the original purchaser listening to the music.
