A group of Germans had the crazy frog idea set to music, and the WHOLE KIT AND CABOODLE was bought up by some other Germans from the ringtone company, Jamster, whose tills have gone ring ding a ding as a result.
The company has accomplished this by blitzing mostly cable and digital TV channels with their Crazy Frog commercial, so much so that the Advertising Standards Authority has received more than 400 complaints.
