Ringtone Piracy Booming In Asia
Is it really any surprise that ringtone piracy is occurring? It’s even less of a surprise that it’s happening in Asia, where music piracy is rampant. Of course, chasing down each of the folks responsible is probably a costly activity. For once, it might make sense for everyone involved to realize that maybe they should just look at those ringtones as promotional items instead of profit centers.

Yes, but...
Sure, but look at the costs of enforcement vs. the benefits of using it as promotion, and I think the cost-benefit equation looks better going with the promotional aspect.
The Miracle Solution is Called CRBT
This is the right opportunity to push even harder for Color Ring Back Tones. Doing so Carriers will have full control on Content, will get content providers confidence and will wipe out piracy and black market one for all.
By the way living in Bangkok working in the wireless industry I know what Piracy & black market is. Cheers. LAurent
