Hi, Robert:  Good to hear from you.  You ask a good question, and I hope
it's ok to post to the mail list.

There seems to be a solid pool of independent music hitting the
Internet.  www.commoncontent.org also has a good seed pool.  However, if
the contest dates are set up with your idea in mind, there's a nice
promotional aspect for having open mic participation.  As you say, it
will be a draw for communities.

Other thoughts?
Thanks,
