   There are tasks which certainly are easier when one has the access (&   
   knowledge) to do things like a file transfer into a specific directory.   
      
   Thus said, once one knows that a particular feature is available, its   
   then usually just a case of Googling for the solution.   
      
   In iOS's case, the file apparently needs to be .m4r format.

   My main ringtone is a long (20 sec) clip from the Theme from Shaft,   
   performed by Maynard Ferguson.   
      
   There's this, plus a couple others on my domain at /usenet/ringtones/   
   including shorter clips (~10sec) from Kashmir and Black Dog.
