A ringing endorsement to raise the tone of mobiles

Moco News reports that the CTIA "is concerned enough by certain styles of ringtones that it is developing a rating system for them, although there doesn't appear to be a way to enforce it.

Finding ring tones of a bed vigorously squeaking, carnal panting or even a person vomiting in a toilet - yes, it's out there - is hardly a challenge as many of the more volatile ring tones are placed on the internet by teenagers.”

Ringtones that resemble shotgun blasts are also cited as a problem, particularly when buying something in a convenience store.
