Jimmy: The thing about ring-tones, Mark, is that while some of them are evergreens, others are very perishable. For instance, this next tone was a huge hit in '07, but dropped off the charts completely in '08! Song: It's good to be king! It's good to be king! Mark: Um... who bought that one? Jimmy: Mostly hedge-fund types. I think they liked the trumpets.
