Snooze.....!

Ringtones....singtones...caller tones...latest buzz in the surrounding of attention seekers fighting to capture even the slightest attention!
Download it....set it on your cell phone ,make others envy of u....but do you agree that the same tone sounds quite cacophonous ,if you set it as an alarm tone..? and snooze adds redundancy by the attributes of frequency modulation(FM)...as if we are listening to FM for the same latest songs all the 24/7...!

button.
