Do music companies usally need a better musicfile

I've just got two forwards and just wonder if some supervisor want to use my music. Would he ask for a different/better musicfile than the file stored in Taxi?
No big deal, but its good to know

Yes. If they wish to sign your tracks, they will contact you, usually via the email provided by TAXI at the time of the forward. There will be a contract or agreement to be completed with things like your PRO, IPI number, and contact information. Your tracks with their instrumentation and other details will be listed usually in an Appendix. They will instruct you what they require from you and how you are to provide it. Some want wav files, others want AIFFs, some wish your submission to mailed on CD and others have FTP. Some may invite you to submit alt versions (submixes) as well as the full final mix. Read all the instructions carefully and follow them to the letter, and do what they ask as soon as possible. That's my philosophy.
