What is the link to the ZEDGE website? This is really my first time ever using this for ringtones. Are used to use Audiko but I can't anymore because they have their own app and every time you try to go to the website it immediately pops up something about a new app but whenever you try to download it says that it can't be downloaded in the US App Store. Do you know if there's any other sites like this when you can get free ringtones? While zedge is a pretty popular One I've heard it doesn't have that many good ringtones that I like and I'm just trying to find other places to go get ringtones. Thanks again.
