The funds advanced to you are to be considered a loan, which is forgiven in its entirety (meaning you owe us nothing) when we receive your mastered CD.

9. Will my CD be played on the radio?
Your CD will be reviewed by our programming departments, as are all CDs we receive from record companies or individual artists. Airplay is not guaranteed and ultimately depends on the quality of the finished tracks and how they fit the format of the station.
