need software to compress mp3s

Post by MMamdouh »

got myself a new mobile NOKIA 6070 and it can use mp3s for ringtone... the inly problem is that it only got 3MB of built in memory and it doesn't have a memory card.

now i have made a few ring tones and they are almost filling all my memory, i need to find a software that can somehow compress the mp3 file to reduce its size so i can atleast capture some pics and be able to have enough space to save them.

any suggestions for such software??

you might be better off using a small piece of the song as a ring tone instead of the whole song, or are you already doing that?

i am doing that indeed and each ring tone is some 350kb or so and i have a total of 2.2MB worth of ringtones... with the other software and a couple of pics the slim 3MB memory is totally used up :cry:
