Hello all, 

We know how important being able to set custom ringtones is to the user. We are 
working on wireframes/requirements to cover the scenarios around downloading 
(or transferring over USB) ringtones that the user can set. 

Our user research has also pointed out how common it was for people to edit 
their own song snippets to produce new ringtones. 
We may just want to encourage the ecosystem to build such an application, but I 
wanted to get some input here on what would be involved to produce such a 
utility. 

The basic functionality would be: 
- Utility presents user with audio files currently residing on device (or 
possibly accessed directly from Music app via the selected audio file) 
- The user should be able to chose the start time and end time for the ringtone 
(with a possible length limit in place) 
- Selection controls need to be precise enough to pick specific starting/ending 
points 
- The user should be able to preview the selected portion of the track 
- Once satisfied, the user should be able to save the snippet and directly set 
it as their ringtone 
- Displaying the waveform is probably optional, but would be nice to be able to 
pinpoint certain parts of the song 

How difficult is this? Is there platform functionality missing to enable this? 
Feel free to provide comments. 

Thanks, 

Peter
