The Richest Woman in the World: How Gina Rinehart Earns her Billions
Why Dell Will Never Be Great Again
There's nothing like a ringtone to set a girl apart
from the other hangers-out at the coffee shop. Ringtone sales have been huge, says the
Motley Fool's Rick Aristotle Munarriz, for companies like Infospace. But when Skype started
selling ringtones, it was to a big ol' yawn from users - who really needs to set his computer ringtone apart from the
other computers in his home office?Munarriz sees a lot of potential, however, in the music download market. His belief is that Skype's 100 million-plus registered users might finally be monetized through music (and, naturally, video downloads and concert tickets), at last justifying eBay's purchase.
I have a hard time seeing this as such a huge advantage, personally - I'm a faithful Skype user, but I've never spent a penny with them. And music won't be the place where I start.
I own a few shares of eBay and zero Skype ringtones.
