AT&T musicAT&T keeps expanding its music offering. Lately they’ve announced two new music applications – mSpot’s Make-UR-Tones and Remix. The first mentioned app allows customers to customize ringtones from their favorite part of a song (1-30 seconds), right on their handsets. The mSpot Make-UR-Tones is available for a monthly subscription of $6.99 for three ringtones, with additional customized ringtones available for purchase on an a la carte basis for $2.99. The application works on Samsung SYNC, A737, A747 and the Motorola V3xx and will expand to additional phones in the near future.

On the other hand, Remix gives customers access to their PC-based music collections directly from their phones. The result is more freedom to listen to the songs they want, when they want. Needless to say, unlimited data plan is preferred when using Remix, but also a willingness to pay $9.99 per month. Monthly subscription allows 75 song downloads, and AT&T is also preparing a Remix booster pack for $2.99, which provides an additional 10 songs. Remix is compatible with the Samsung SYNC, A737 and the LG SHINE phones.

Also in the news, AT&T said they’ll be bringing Napster Mobile to more phones. The company plans is to expand the mobile music platform by making the service available to more than 12 million customers, beginning this summer.
