quality ringer material

I've always thought the best cell phone ringers were NES game songs (evidence: I've got a good couple dozen of 'em on my phone), and now the hotness gets hotter: the NES Sound Format is basically a wrapper around the 6502 code that drives the NES sound system; the result is a perfect facsimile of the original songs. The OCRemix website has a reasonable archive of NSFs, and you can find more laying around in various places. Moreover, Zophar has a (windows only) utility that converts them to MIDIs. Swoot.

Of course, that one isn't quite good enough, so I'm planning on writing my own soon enough...
