How Long Does It Take To Get Reviewed For Listing?

[damagebyfriction]

Hi, Everyone. I was wondering how long does it usually take to get your submission returned or forwarded (reviewed i guess?).I got one back last week and just waiting on the other. Also a newbie question i guess If it takes longer is that a good thing or does it really matter. I mean if it takes the listener, reviewer longer does that mean they are considering it?? WHAT A NEWBIE QUESTION HAHAHA SORRY!.Sandi

WHAT A NEWBIE QUESTION HAHAHA SORRY!.SandiThe results are held until the very last song is screened. Then they release the results all at once. Taking longer either means that there were more submissions to screen or that some other listing took longer, thereby bumping the timing of your listing screening back a bit.Generally it's 4 to 6 weeks. I think most of mine have been closer to 4 weeks lately. You'll see a mini-flood of "Hey! I got forwarded!" posts here when the listing results come out as well as a few "Fooey... I got returned" posts. I made one of those posts recently.
