Music Execs: What's Your Ring Tone?
Digital media executives from the music business took part in a Wednesday session at the Consumer Electronics Show that involved a wide-ranging discussion about a number of issues facing the industry [see Technology Daily's PM Edition for more].
To get the ball rolling, each panelist was asked what specialized ring tone they had chosen to alert them of a call on their cellphone. Surprisingly, several opted for a more traditional sound.
* Yahoo Vice President Ian Rogers: "Thelonious Monk."
* EMI Music Group's Barney Wragg: "The sound of the phone ringing."
* Attorney Fred Goldring: "Lurch from 'The Addams Family.'"
* Nettwerk Music Group CEO Terry McBride: "The old school 'ring, ring.'"
* ASCAP Vice President Matthew DeFilippis: "I can't remember the last time I put my phone on audible ring."
