Can I use excerpts from famous songs as ringtones

Using a sample of a song without permission may violate the copyrights of the artist or record company that owns the rights to the song. This may lead to legal action or requests to remove your sonnerie.

In some countries, the use of song extracts for strictly personal and non-commercial purposes may be tolerated, but this may vary according to the laws in force.

To legally use clips of famous songs as ringtones, you must obtain explicit permission from the artist or record company holding the copyright. This may require the payment of royalties or other conditions specified by the owners of the rights.

If you want to avoid any copyright issues, you can opt for royalty-free ringtones or pre-installed ringtones on your phone, which are usually free from copyright issues.
