For example, we can play a music CD with any manufactures' players. We can do this because the format of the music CD is standardized. For the mobile phone, however, manufactures had used different formats, so a user could not share and enjoy the same data with another manufacturer's mobile phone. To solve this problem, in 1999, Faith came up with the idea of standarizing the music data format such as the one used for ringtones. With this new technological concept and proposal, Faith became the true Pioneer in mobile phone contents format. In 2002, Europe, North America, and Asia also started using this format.
