Every other advert on Sky is for sodding ringtones. Ok, they get my goat. But aside from all that, why on earth would anyone want a text alert that shouts, "you are an idiot" in the most annoying voice I have ever heard. Ever. Its self evident that you are an idiot to signing up to some service that costs you £500 a week to get a sh1te ring tone or text alert, but having a constant reminder to the rest of the pub every time someone texts you. Incredible.

yep, MTV on in the background. More ringtones than music these days.

And the music is repeated almost as much as the ringtone ads! They played Madonnas new track twice before I had chance to leave the house this morning....

Can't understand why someone would sign up to these services though. Take the three mobile games a week, how could you possibly have chance to play them properly before the next arrives?! Unless you manage to fit it in between episodes of Trisha.....
