$150 a year for people to judge your songwriting skills, you can do that at an open mic night and people give You money for that. Is it really that worth it?

[Roger L.]

These are people who actually know what they're talking about and not just satisfying their own thoughts or ideas or on some agenda

[Sonofarich]

Funny thing though...the public (who actually buys the songs) do not always have the best taste and make some pretty mediocre bands/artists some decent $$ (i.e. Jonas Bros., Green Day, etc.)

[Reags]

Really? The Jonas brothers and Green Day in the same category?

Harsh, Haha,
