Question 4 channel polyphonic ringtones

Quick question (well 2 actually)

Firstly, as you probably know, the majority of Nokia phones only support 4 concurrent midi channels, which means that the downloadable ringtones have to be converted using the Nolia app that ships with the phones, and generally results in fairly crappy sound.

So, Q1 - Is there somewhere that 'specialises in 4 channel poly ringtones?

and Q2 - my 7250 is a great phone, but there's not a single 'normal' ring ring poly tone. I like the tunes, but when in the office or on a train I really don't want to sound like I've just popped my Casio QL tone out for a quick tinkle (so to speak ). Anyone know where I can get some more normal (but still quite funky) tones? I've bought a CD from eBay, but that's all multi-channel musical stuff.

PS Sorry to anyone under 30, you probably won't know what a QL tone is!

Can Nokias use ordinary midi files?

If so... http://www.siemens-s55.de/ringtones/...diskret-01.zip
