Wig,You never know until you try. Think happy thoughts about yourself and your work. You don't need that kind of negative synergy to develop in the studio. Don't think of it as 30 bucks down the toilet. Think of it as chance for a forward and helpful critique to boot.I've got stuff that I know has no chance in hell of being forwarded but at least I'll have the critique and the forums for guidance so MAYBE, just maybe next time I'll get the forward.Chin up! Be happy!

You have to get a degree in order to get a job, right?(graduation certificate = BMI/ASCAP statement )So it´s an investment. This is a business after all HTH- JH

Hi Wig,Welcome to the club,In my day job I travel a whole lot, and I happen to have a few river boat casino's in my territory..... when I sit at a blackjack table ( which are getting very expensive---few $5 per hand games) now its $15 per hand--- I keep saying to my myself--- that could have been 3 submissions, there goes another 3 three submission ... and so on!!Submitting is like the lottery.. you can't win if you don't play....Bob

Well your music carreer IS a business. You have to invest a lot in it if you want it to pay.On my side I,m building a Studio B for my company next week, costing me another 9 000$. So putting things in perspective, I'd say 30$ is a fair price O

If you don't submit, they can't forward. Good investment.Tom
