Taxi will be sending you a membership package with all the info. If there's a current listing with an upcoming deadline that you want to submit to, call Taxi and explain. Otherwise, you'll get the current listings & your info pack in the mail... and the next listings, date 15Feb, will be out this week as well.Once you have your info pack & Taxi membership number, you can get yourself a Broadjam MOB account if you plan to submit music on-line. If not, the info pack has all the instructions on how to submit by mail.Welcome aboard!cheersHummin'bird

henryb,You've got some decisions to make and I'll give you the lowdown.You've taken the big step that we all have taken and joined.This puts you in the thick of the music biz... a competitor. Your songs go "in the bin" with the rest of us.The first question to ask yourself is how many submissions might you make in your first year...Why?It's a financial question, pure economics, and the answer dictates your next course of action.Submitting songs online vs submitting through the mail...The costs associated with each vary, depending on the number of submissions you expect to make and how disciplined you can be in avoiding paying for 2nd day shipping to meet submission deadlines. For me, the savings added up to the hundreds. I make no excuses for being so lax...The costs regarding online submissions thru Broadjam vs hardcopy shipping can be quantified by doing your math.In most cases, setting up a Broadjam account and submitting online is the winner. The savings can be huge.Online is the way to go if you plan on submitting songs more than just a few times.Best wishes...

Hookstown Brown , well for youre question about how manysubmissions i'll get this year , as much as i can and im sure imgonna submit a lot of music , of course my first and only decision on how to send it its through Broadjam , online.The thing is i cant sign in to broadjam for the reason thatthe TAXI ID isn't approved yet cause at the signup at broadjamsite it doesnt accept the ID the sent to me by Email by taxi,so i guess i'll wait a little bit for the package from taxi tocontinue signing on broadjam and start submitting my music.hummingbirdim sending them an email....anyway im gonna send my other music that fits requests from the listings thattheir deadline are somewhere in March .Thanks for the welcome and explanation
