Next time you fancy getting the theme from The Godfather or Close Encounters as a cellphone ringtone, just be careful where you buy it — you could be helping put the seller behind bars.
It's pretty hard to believe, but the Malaysian press is reporting that some half-assed market trader who has been selling unlicensed ringtones has been arrested by their equivalent of the RIAA.
He faces up to five years in jail and a massive fine just for peddling annoying crap — personally, I'd pay him not to sell that junk ever again to anyone.
