The new technologies are offering each day more and more multimedia materials for mobile phones with a great variety and free or paid download. One may download hundreds of thematic logos and new music frequently updated but also the last hits in the original version. The best sites to download music, logos or screen savers are the websites, but also television, newspapers and youth magazines. Presently, these sites are offering a very good design, a high quality and a wide variety.

In order to start the downloading process of music or ring tone for your mobile, one has to check whether the mark and the model of the mobile are compatible with the desirable product. If the mobile phone has not the configuration to receive multimedia messages, it may be configured through the telecommunication company or even through the websites of download that have lists of compatibility. These lists of compatibility show only the elements that can be downloaded through your mobile. In order to download polyphonic ring tones and colour logos to your mobile, you need to have a multimedia phone that can receive multimedia messages.

Many times, the publicity of downloading ring tones and music comes in big letters saying “free”, but it is all false because the simple subscription has the cost of a text message. Downloading multimedia materials can have associated extra costs from the telecommunication company. One has to have also activated the GPRS that is General Packet Radio Service, a Mobile Data Service available to users of GSM and mobile phones. The cost of connexion with WAP (Wireless Application Protocol – that is the access to Internet from a mobile phone) depends on the operator company and it is on charge of the client. WAP is necessary for sending contents of second and third-generation technology of mobile phones as these are too large to be send through a short message service (SMS) of 160 characters.
