8). Q - I have a question regarding the Production Music License that is out to bid. In reviewing the terms and conditions I noticed that NASA is asking for the composers within the license library must be awarding winning Grammy, Golden Globe and Academy award winning composers. As well as we must have file formats that include AIFF,WAV and MP3. At this time we don’t have any composers who have won all three awards that write our music. Is this a deal breaker? I’m asking because I’ve been in this business for 10 years and I can’t say that I’ve encountered a library who has worked with composers who have won all 3. Also our website offers WAV and MP3, will that suffice?

If these aren’t deal breakers I’d love to submit a proposal?

A – Per the Statement of Work, the requirement asked for AIFF, WAV, and MP3. If you’d like to submit a proposal, we will review it, however, if you do meet all the requirements, this may affect the decision.
