Akon tops ringtone pops

Akon's 2006 album 'Konvicted' went double platinum in the US this week, meaning sales of over 2 million, of course, but who cares about record sales when you're also being proclaimed 'best selling ringtone artist of all time'? US phone firm Cingular gave that title to the R&B star this week after confirming that ringtones of two of his songs - 'Smack That' and 'I Wanna Love You' - were both also double-platinum. And that's what really counts, surely?
