Ok, so I just got my Versa a couple days ago... I had no idea how to get music on my phone or as ring tones. I spent a day on this site and found all the necessities of getting your phone able to play ring tones and receive tones from your computer...
Getting music off your computer to your Versa:
First you need to modem driver...

http://www.lgmobilephones.com/uploadedFiles/LG_Mobile/PhoneAssets/_Drivers/Verizon/LGUSBModemDriver_Eng_WHQL_Ver_4.9.4_All.exeNext, install the driver... LOL Don't forget to have the phone plugged in!
Lastly, go to your menu button and select "Media Center", "Music & Tones", "My Music", then there are 3 buttons on the top of the screen, the third one says "SYNC". Open Windows Media Player, and go to the Sync option on Windows Media Player, then click the SYNC button on your Versa.
You now can build a playlist to sync to your Versa. Careful, there isn't a ton of internal memory.
Now to Create your own ringtones WITHOUT having to sign up for ANYTHING!
First you need to Download the following two programs
The first program is called Audicity. It's a simple music editing tool.

http://lame.buanzo.com.ar/Lame_v3.98.2_for_Audacity_on_Windows.exeNow for the info on how to use these programs...
First install Audicity, then install Lame for Audicity.
Open Audicity
Click in the top left, File, Open... then where ever your music is located, then open the song you want.
You will notice the blue wavy bar. That is your song.
To cut the part of the song you want.... CLICK AND HOLD at the beginning where you want you clip to start, then drag the cursor to the end where you want the clip to stop.
This selection has just highlighted the clip you want.
Now go to EDIT, Trim.
The Trim option will cut EVERYTHING away from the song EXCEPT for the highlighted section.
(Don't worry, it won't actually delete or mess with anything from the original file)
Now that you have your selected ring tone clip... you need to export it into an .mp3 format.
Go FILE, Export As MP3... it will then ask you to install the Lame Codec (or locate, dunno if it will ask you) which is located Local Disk:C/Program Files/Lame for Audicity
You will see a file named lame_enc.dll
That is the Codec
Click OK and double click the lame_enc.dll
You can now export the file as an MP3
It will ask you where you want to export the file to... Just export to the desktop, makes it all easier to find...
Now that you have your ring tone created... it's time to get it sent to your phone
about time right?...
Go to...

http://www.voyager-lg.com/contact/sendSMS.phpPut in your phone number, don't put a 1 in front or anything like that, just the normal 10 digit number without dashes
Then click the Browse button and search for where ever you exported the ring tone to... click Submit... ANDDDD YOU JUST MADE A FREE RINGTONE!!!
Also!!! If you want to get any song in the world... Use Mozilla Firefox and get the add-on called Video DownloadHelper
(YES THERE IS NO SPACE IN BETWEEN "Download and Helper).
If you can't find it, go Firefox.com, Add-ons, Search Box, enter Video DownloadHelper... bamo! first search result that comes up!
Install the download helper, it will ask you to restart firefox, do it.
Go to Playlist.com to search for songs, once you've found the song you want, click the play button next to it.
You need to let the song load completely so you can download it!!!!!
To download the song, right next to your Address bar is 3 colored balls rolling around... red, yellow and blue...
To the RIGHT of the balls is a LITTLE TINY arrow facing down...
CLICK IT... Your song may not come up named correctly... The LAST option on the drop down box IS the song you have let load.
Click it! Save it somewhere... Like in your music folder...
TADA!!! Free music! Also works with Youtube.com
That's my bit on getting stuff done with my new Versa... BTW ALL THIS STUFF IS LEGAL!
If you have ANY question on how to get this stuff to work... Let me know via a post here...
Hope I have helped anyone that is lost on how to do this stuff
