Up until now, mobile operators like Vodafone and Orange have taken around 40% of the ring-tone fee; middlemen like Musiwave and Buongiorno, whose roles range from composing and aggregating songs to delivering them, around 40%; and music publishers - which are sometimes owned by labels and sometimes aren...
