This is the kind of thing that Telus or Bell Mobility do!. Rogers has now joined the ranks of the greedy capitalist bastards!

Still my phone isn't as badly locked and disabled as my co-workers Samsung, poor guy.]]>Jul 18th 2007 4:09PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 6:13PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 5:21PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 5:54PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/
What in the world would that have to do with "requiring new handsets to lock out MP3 ringtones"?

Here's an intarweb tip: use teh google ( http://www.tehgoogle.com ) before saying stuff that you think might be true but you're dumb.]]>Jul 18th 2007 6:02PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/

Of course, it could just be an instance of the carriers being just as money grubbing as the music industry and wanting more ringtone download revenue and using the music industry as a scapegoat. Or it could be a little greed on both sides.]]>Jul 19th 2007 2:42PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/> (They have never come down conclusively, however, on the legal status of ghetto blasters).

Do you mean the guys with boomboxes volume-maxxed, or just the boomboxes themselves?]]>Jul 23rd 2007 12:32AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 19th 2007 12:41AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 5:22PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 5:54PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 7:56PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 18th 2007 8:14PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Jul 24th 2007 2:22PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Aug 1st 2007 4:20PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Aug 6th 2007 8:02PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/The MOTO KRZR I bought from rogers last month allows me to use mp3 ringtones (mind you it was the (product) red edition so that might have made a difference)]]>Sep 9th 2007 2:28PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/
After 2 hours on the phone with Rogers, I was able to get a $120 credit on my account :-) That should more than cover the debranding charges once the phone comes off warranty.]]>Aug 7th 2007 12:45AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Aug 16th 2007 1:27PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Aug 21st 2007 10:45PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/
I just got a phone, samsung a706, and i just found out my cell is like that. Its such a piss off!! lol

So any ways I got the Sony DRM converter, but I was just wondering what do I need to do now?

I've made my ring tune have a DRM rights folder, and I have a .dm file, but it won't let me move that to my phone...so I still can't play my own mp3s as ring tunes.

Could you please help me out!! I would appreciate it sooo much!

Thanks,
Christine]]>Sep 1st 2007 3:38PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Aug 22nd 2007 2:26AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://developer.sonyericsson.com/site/global/docstools/misc/p_misc.jsp]]>Sep 4th 2007 4:33AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Oct 15th 2007 5:18PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/07/18/rogers-wireless-baning-mp3-ringtones-on-its-handsets/Sep 20th 2007 4:39PM
