Not just Samsungs. The newer Nokias are also restricted in this way. You can't add MP3s from other content providers. T-Mobile and other carriers are said to be losing millions in possible revenue from ringtone sites other than their own. So to stop that they started having the phones restricted by the manufacture to only accept content they provide. You can get around this in most cases by having the phone flashed, which removes the T-Mobile customizations and replaces it when a non-branded version.

I think the whole key is like you say - use Bluetooth which I did a long time ago and will have to fiddle with again. I had made a couple 3gps and they are excellent ringtones. In the long run it is probably easier just to go to one of the free midi websites and be done with it. What gets me is my V600 used Mp3s so easily but the Samsung has that license restriction agreement with T-Mo on MP3s.
