My ringtone was a funky chiptune version of O Green World by Gorillaz.

    I think their only recourse was that there was the asterisk with the subscription verbage in really tiny fine print that was only visible if you had an 80" projector TV

        Lol I feel ya. My brother did something similar with an SMS catfact-esque subscription in the days where sms wasn’t free, our mom was about ready to kill him. Problem was that it billed to the carrier, and so it was like $10/month on top of per message fees, and the carrier didn’t bill it until like 6 months later
