Thanks.

Ed,

Links to YouTube videos are fine. I prefer the ability to download the song if I feel it's a fit for the scene. Having the option to download does make things easier and quicker when there are a large number of links submitted.

Since the deadline is quickly approaching and time is getting thin, I do not want to miss out on a song that could potentially be the one the director ends up selecting. So, I'll be open to whatever method is available to the submitter.

The main reason for the ability to download an MP3 is to make things easier for the director who has been crazy busy lately. When the submissions come in, I screen them and pick out the ones that are the closest to what the director is looking for. Then I put all of those MP3s in a Dropbox folder that corresponds to the cue it's meant to replace. This way the director has a one-stop place to review the submissions.

Best!
