How to Make Your Own Answer Tones
Answer tones are different than ring tones in that they are used to allow the person who is calling you to hear music while waiting for you to answer the phone. Answer tones are a popular option on many cell phones currently on the market. Answer tones can be downloaded from your cell phone carrier or you can make your own answer tones on iTunes and upload those to your phone in the same way you make ring tones on iTunes.
