Instead of coming up with better music (or at least a better variety of talent), the music industry is stuck with repackaging its products in order to squeeze more money. Will consumers pay for the ringle? The ringle is a new packaged format : three songs (one new track, one remix, one older track) plus one ringtone. It’s SonyBMG’s idea and they will have around 50 titles ready for the holiday season. Expect to pay $6 to $7 for the ringle.

Next up : the “ringbum”?
