Skype today launched Personalise Skype, letting Skype's 55 million callers show off their individuality with sounds, ringtones and pictures. Qpass, whose software provides the fastest path to profit in digital media commerce, will fully manage the Personalise Skype storefront, including content sourcing and management.
The Personalise Skype service allows Skype users with the latest version of Skype for Windows 1.4 to download pre-recorded voice clips and sounds to use as a ringtone or to customize any of the default sound events in Skype. There is also a wide variety of pictures and avatars. Today's launch continues Skype's expansion of its premium services following its recent announcement of Skype's Voice Services Program which will offer callers free and chargeable content over Skype. Personalise Skype will join Skype's other premium service offerings which boasts more than 2 million customers."Skype is committed to providing a simple, reliable and friendly communication tool.

The Qpass platform manages hundreds of thousands of content applications and services across mobile, VoIP, and WiFi networks. Qpass provides software solutions that enable communications providers to efficiently market and deliver digital goods, from managing the subscribers' purchasing experience through delivery, billing and after-sale customer care.
