Quran as a Ringtone Haram?

:sl:
Is it haram to have a verse from the Quran as a ringtone on your cell phone? I was gonna do it but I heard some people say it is haram. So what do you guys think about that?
And how about listening to the Quran in the background. Like if I'm doing something else and I have the Quran playing, even in the car. Because I listen to the Quran a lot even when its not the only thing I'm doing and I've heard people say that this is not a good thing to do. But I'm still not sure, do any of you know the answer.
