:beer;I think it goes without saying that teasers are exactly that, right? So 5 second clips of the highlights craftily edited together is whats expected. If it is a 4:30 edited teaser clip and 3:00 are of sunsets, snow, and background stuff, are you saying its cool to have the same ratio of that in a full length 45:00 movie? No way! So that's Hatcher's and my point.
Garage bands are basically free in most cases, as far as royalties go, as long as you promote them on the film by putting their name out there. Therefore, many start up bands are gonna be on the vids. Would you be willing to pay about 4x the current cost of an average sled video that sells at least 20,000 per year? I would rather have garage bands, even though I would prefer otherwise, than pay the high price of royalties.
BTW, I have plenty of experience in music, royalties, editing, creating movies, and TV shows to give an educated opinion, in case you wondering

dude... finding good music from hoards of up and coming bands on the internet is like trying to find a diamond ring at the landfill... I personally spend hours listening to music on music licensing sites trying to find good music... it sucks bad... for every decent song i hear i have to go through about 500 crappy songs... its ridic
phatty you stole the words right out of my mouth,
music searching is so time consuming, exactly what he said to find 1 song that would sond good, you listen to 500 ! maybe not that but still, I probly listen to 100 songs per night seeking a good one.
Not volunteering myself per say but maybe it could be some sort of contest. Find us a great song and if we select it we will give you a free DVD with your song in it...I don't know. I'm sure this forum could help some how with this.
