How to Download IPhone Ringtones
If you have an iPhone, one of the great ways you can personalize the unit is to add your own hand-selected ringtones. When you have your own ringtones on your iPhone, you can give each of your friends and family members the personal ring on your phone that truly represents who they are.

My suggestion - use BeeMp3 to download music onto your computer music files (to avoid the "protected" songs which won't let you edit or use them in your itunes), then use a program called "iRinger" which is free and you can "import" the song directly from your computers music file, then create a custom ringtone that when "exported" can then be saved in your itunes "ringtones" folder. Another tip - if it has the same name as a protected song in your itunes file, put a number at the beginning of the song when you save it to trick itunes, then it should show up on your iphone. It's very easy.

That's a good point about Garage Band because I have found that you can create your own ringtones elsewhere, but can't assign them to individual callers. Is there an app you can download that offers ringtones as well?
