Well if your like me than you love getting new ringtones of your favorite songs, but there is always that cost involved just to get them. It could cost anywhere from $10 a month to $5 a ringtone which in my opinion is outrageous especially since you can make it yourself.
To make your ringtones you will need to download a program called Audacity. Audacity is a freeware program that edits all types of music files except those with a .wma format because of the restrictions that windows has on it. But don't fret you can convert a file with a .wma format into a .mp3 or other compatible format using a program, but be careful because many programs have malware viruses and other harmful stuff that can hurt your computer. To download Audacity please visit the following link http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/.

Press install, and now Audacity is now installed so press the finish button.
