Hi
I am a newbie at this and don't know what I am doing.
I have a question. How many songs can I submit?
I am in the flood zone in the Baton Rouge, La. area. As I drove down street after street and saw how home after home had been destroyed I remembered a song I had written and all these homes were the pride and joy of families. Now all of the hand picked items that made this the perfect home sat on side of the road as trash.
I guest when I realized this it really touched my heart.
I went home reworked my song, added the xtra track and submitted it. I hope it will help us appreciate how nice it is to have a home to share with family and friends.

voxbox: You've mentioned having the EverythingPAK and the 49-PAK purchased earlier this year, but did you also purchase the just-released Xtra Styles? The confusion could be that we are stating they use the RealTracks in the 2016 UltraPlusPAK, EverythingPAK, or Audiophile Edition, and 49-PAK - but the Xtra Styles are still an additional purchase: http://www.pgmusic.com/xtrastyles.php(on sale until September 30th)

Hi William,
The rules for this contest do not state that there is only 1 submission per person, so feel free to submit songs for each genre/category if you'd like!

It seems that I shot off on a tangent. I interpreted VB's posts as saying that he had the XtraPAK. VB: Apologies for leading your astray. The XtraPAK was only released a month or so ago and is not part of your Christmas purchase. Regards, Noel

That's what I started to suspect but was not sure. I will purchase the Xtra styles. I thought I was losing my mind:) LOL Cheers!

Islansoul - Since the Xtra Styles will trigger the RealTracks & RealDrums that you already have installed, there's no need to offer a special uncompressed version. If you have the Audiophile, it will trigger the uncompressed files for you.
Thanks,
Callie
