In this video, I answer a question from kennyiscool on Twitter – http://twitter.com/kennyiscool who writes: “Why choose an Xbox 360 Over a PS3?” Somehow, I knew this question was going to come after my previous video on reasons why to choose a PS3 over a 360. Well Kenny, here are some, I repeat, SOME, of the reasons why someone would choose an Xbox 360 over a PS3. 1. An Xbox 360 provides flexible pricing options for new users. The 360 Arcade starts at just $169 (with deals) and can go all the way up to $399 for an Xbox Elite. This provides a lot of options who want to enter the platform but want to gradually add accessories and options. 2. Ease of use with online collaboration. The Xbox 360, with an Xbox Live Gold account, provides the best interface for online chat, friends management, multi-player game management, voice and the like. The interfaces provided are polished and well done, but again, require a monthly or yearly fee. 3. Very Windows friendly home media extensions. The Xbox 360 ties very well into Windows machines through Windows Media Player, Home Media Center and other programs. The entire Windows family of products does a lot with the Xbox 360 out of the box. It also plays well with Microsoft’s online services such as MSN chat, Gamertag features on Xbox.com, Badges and all kinds of other cool stuff. 4. Netflix support is fantastic on the Xbox 360. Out of the box, and with an Xbox Live Gold account, you get instant streaming of Netflix movie content. So these are just some of the reasons why someone would choose an Xbox 360 over a Sony PS3. Again, I want to stress these are really subjective and opinionated. Make a reasonable choice based on your wants, and don’t be pressured into getting a console due to popularity. Thanks for the question, kenny, and I’m wondering how long will it take for someone to question about the Wii. Not long, I bet.

In this video, I discuss a well loved topic at Bwana.TV, ringtones. My Free iPhone Ringtone video at Youtube is one of my most well loved to date. It was made when iTunes 7.4.1 was released and it used a workaround that I thought would not last for a month. Instead, this workaround works on the latest iTunes 8.0.2. This video demonstrates how to make ringtones form the rich sound loop library at Soundsnap.com. This solution is for the iPhone only, but if your mobile device supports mp3 ringtones, then all you need to do is download your favorite loop from Soundsnap, and copy it to your mobile device. With the iPhone, this trick that I demonstrate involves renaming the file extension to .M4R after converting the MP3 to AAC. Soundsnap saves you the distress of editing your sounds to loop correctly and offers a ton of sound effects, music loops and the like. I’ve already made 2 ringtones in less than 10 minutes of surfing the site. I highly recommend you check out Soundsnap.com for all kinds of music loops use this technique or whatever technique you prefer to transfer those loops your mobile device. Delight in!
