Why do we call them ring tones anymore?

When was the last time you heard a cell phone "ring" with "tones" ?

Today, most people have the first 20 seconds of their favourite MP3 as their ringer. Perhaps we should call them ring music? Instead of ringtone?

I'm curious how many of you have your phone set to sound like a ring, or music, or just weird sounds? We should have a vote, but I know already.. ring music will be the winner.

How about no ring tones... just a phone that vibrates when it goes off? I find that if my phone is inside my jacket, or jean pocket, rarely do I feel it vibrate, so I miss a lot of calls that way. Perhaps the vibration on the cellphone is weaker as the battery gets older.
