For most of time that Adrian and Mark have been collaborating their primary professional activity has been busking in subway stations and similar venues in Chicago. I imagine dealing with the music industry side of things is full of unforeseen barriers, hassles and delays for them.
Hopefully, Haley's experiences and her associations and friendships with various managers, producers, and aspiring musicians will help her understanding of how to negotiate the iTunes matter. It's nice that she will have had several months to get this in order, too. (She might want to look into alternative photo processors, however.)
Ultimately, promotion is the challenge. It is good that some of the others in the project have a stake in seeing the video succeed. She needs some sort of break though.
