Ear Training Ringtones

Here's a present for the new year. Ringtones for your iPhones. Download this file , unzip it, open with iTunes, sync your iPhone.

Next, assuming you have about a dozen contacts that call you, assign one ringtone per contact.
Each ringtone is an interval. After a while, you will associate John to a minor 6th interval, and Sophie to a b9.
This is passive ear training, intended to slowly help you recognize about a dozen intervals.

What else? It is far less annoying than having Fur Elise or Jay-Z interrupt your meeting!

I have a little fun with Tynerisms on the bridge. I thought it just screamed for it.
