Thanks for all the feedback on this. I know the copyright office recently added a simplied submission and they are probably just really being picky. I will be writing back to see if i can cinvince them that the backings should be treated as "samples" . I have submitted lead sheets and also mp3s in the past without incident. At any rate, i was posting this for suggestions as well as a heads up for everyone and got so great info so thanks. I may be looking into the songuard thing!
