Thank god. I have been trying to recreate that yoshi story theme song as a ringtone for years. That song is the closest music will ever come to being a highly addictive drug.

Too little too late from Nintendo there. Sega, Konami, Taito, Namco and Capcom have been doing this for years. The best is Sega with 10 downloads per month for only 300 yen (SMAF only. MP4 is 4 downloads per month). Konami is 100 yen per download !!! Capcom and Taito don't seem to have any set price from what I can tell. Still, it may be nice if they do a deal like Sega with just a once a month charge for 10 downloads or something.
