Wondering about this listing

I just saw this listing for Christmas music and was wondering why the deadline would be Jan 7th 2011?
Its listing #Y110103XM

Just curious.

Most Xmas music gets placed many months in advance of the holiday season-- often the search for music starts mid-year. So my guess is this is not aimed at this year's holiday season.

Absolutely correct, Casey. Film music supervisors look for Christmas/Holiday songs around January when it's not so busy and they have time to check on things like: illegal use of samples, whether they can get clearances, permission from all of the writers involved, if the music fits the scene, etc.

Well, that's good to know! I kinda wondered...thought maybe the A&R guy didn't get the memo that Christmas was 12/25!

Yep; records for holiday release are generally recorded in July.
