Real continues to plan for future RBT service enhancements. "Ringback Tones have become so popular, they are today not only demanded but also a generally expected service on all mobile phones," said Jay Kim, VP, APAC & Music Business, RealNetworks.

We are continually innovating RBT services and intend to keep pushing RBT to the next level for XL."
