Ringtone creation disappears from iTunes 10

Option remains in 9.2.1
The option of buying and creating ringtones has been removed from iTunes 10, users note. Under the software's View Options menu, the earlier "Ringtone" column has vanished; this previously let people know if it was possible to turn tracks from the iTunes Store into ringtones for an extra 99 cents. Throughout the rest of the program, the only references to ringtones include information on syncing and the Ringtones tab under the Library.
The ability to buy ringtones still exists under the previous version of iTunes, v9.2.1. Why Apple would disable the function in v10 is unclear, but ringtones have never been cited by Apple as a significant source of revenue. For technically savvy users it's also comparatively easy to create free ringtones, using third-party editing tools.

ok
Third-party editing tools? I thought GarageBand was the best way.
