Mike,

Glad to hear from you. I am seeing more and more competition in film libraries, TAXI, as well. They are wanting songs that adhere to the same rules we talk about. In my conversations with people like Micheal Laskow, of TAXI and even today at the songwriter's festival, Steve McClintock, a hit writer with cuts on Tiffany, The Nelsons as well as country stars, who lives and works in LA in the film business, was disussing this just today.

They are becoming more and more picky on what is pitched as those relationships are getting prickly as well and the level is getting higher and higher. Frankly they have a lot to choose from as well.

So I would say overall it is getting harder and harder no matter how you look at it. And by skipping rules and suggestions, it just makes it that much harder. And right now it is nearly impossible even for those who do everything exactly right and have their own styles, attitudes and million dollar smiles.

Tough competitive world.

Hope you are feeling okay my friend.

MAB
