We are very easy to deal with in this respect.
We ask for the full release...if it has "Promo" written all over it or a hole in the barcode, that's fine. If you send us a sampler or a scaled back promotional release, we'll review it, but of course we can't talk about how great the package looks.
If you are just starting out with a self-financed release or if you're a small label we understand sending stuff out isn't cheap. Therefore we are willing to work out some sort of reimursement program.
We don't review MP3s.
