It really does attract the nation's best as you have said. <BR/>You also asked some very good questions. Here are the answers that I was able to find:<BR/>The American Idol auditions are in person only. I am sorry if what I wrote was confusing. Just to clarify: Both the Next Great American Band & the American Idol are produced by the same people. This post highlights the fact that both are currently auditioning. However, where the two auditions differ is that the Next Great American Band accepts DVDS; and the American Idol auditions are in person only. <BR/>If you are thinking about auditioning for the Next Great American Band, they do keep all submissions that are sent to them and consider them to be their property at that point. I was reading their submission rules and I didn't see any length requirements. You can view them for yourself at: http://www.americanidol.com/media/news/casting/guidelines.pdf . <BR/>You are right; the American Idol should accept DVDs for their auditions. Unfortunately, they do not. You have to go in person, In their rules and guidelines, they give helpful information like telling people to register 2 days before the actual audition because if you wait until the audition day you will have to wait for a long time. These rules and guidelines can be found at: http://www.americanidol.com/auditions/season7/faqs.php - & also-<BR/>http://www.americanidol.com/auditions/season7/rules.php. <BR/>I hope that helps. I also hope that you audition. If you do, please keep all of us posted so that we can root for you.prizeisrighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02223889867012390835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14351351.post-26068514135162303402007-07-27T20:44:00.000-07:002007-07-27T20:44:00.000-07:00american idol is going to be a tough contest! it is going to attract nation's best talent. <BR/><BR/>what has to be the video length to be uploaded? <BR/><BR/>Also if the video is not selected the DVD would be returned ?The Prize Bloghttp://theprizeblog.comnoreply@blogger.com
