But,
Mac, you do recording in your own home, radio ads, jingles, etc. It may not be 'Grammy' material, but it does end up on the airwaves. You record and do all the mixing, engineering at home in a home studio, correct?

As Scott said, 0.001% of all songs done in a year may be considered for a Grammy Award, so there are lots of songs out there, some that may be done in a home studio, either consumer, prosumer, or semi-pro (or, even pro quality home studios...they do exist) that don't make it, for one reason or another.

As part of this, I have to wonder how many songs are submitted to A&R, singers, bands, etc., every year that never get recorded, for one reason or another. Not questioning whether they are good enough or not, but just don't make that cut.

I don't think the original question is a 'realistic' question, but that's my two cents.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
