Hi Folks,
We are currently working on Round 4 of this year's music awards. In this round, we are flagging songs for nomination consideration and also for addition to the playlist of our Radio Free Virgin Channel.
Currently we are working on over 50 different genres including several brand new ones. When we complete Round 4, we'll post the entire list for everyone to check out.
We saw a huge amount of growth in several genres this year including Jazz, Rap, Celtic, Solo Instrumental, Latin and World/Ethnic.
The overall process is taking a long time, even longer than we estimated. But we'd rather take extra time than rush anything, so it will be done when it is done. Our initial goal is to announce the nominees in May but it might fall into June based on the pace we're on right now. We'll schedule the awards once we have a nominations date locked in.
If you have questions or comments on the awards process, feel free to post them here and we'll answer them as quickly as possible.
Good luck to everyone!
Brian

Thanks for the update.
You might like to post this announcement on the Awards page, as that page has long announced that Rounds One and Two are nearly complete, and here you are announcing that Round Four is underway.
Good luck, Folks.

Big Train,
That's why we update it here and also in every newsletter. The category website pages only get updated every few months or less.

Thanks, understood (and hoping that unsolicited advice doesn't get me demerits from the big man).

No problem.. I wish we could update the site every week.. but in the scheme of things it ends up at the bottom of the priority list during most busy weeks. We're planning to change the site over to a text/database type of thing where it would be as easy to update as post here.. but that's still a ways off.
Thanks,
Brian
