I just listened to one and liked it.

I listened to part's of about 15(edit.. keeps going up) of them and all of 6 or 7 of them.
Some of them are really good ... I think I enjoy a couple more than the album recording , depending on my mood. They would definitely be far better bar or dance music (logically so, because the original wasn't that style)
Its the sort of thing I wish I could get myself to learn to do(even if do really poorly!). I even have a subscription to Adobe CC which is sort of an albatross for me to pay monthly given how much I use it(sort of like a gym membership). I have some tools to do the mixing if I wanted to.
Obviously this is a real hobby for some of these people doing it.. I'm sure a number of them are "pros" or aspiring "pros" who do some paid audio work in some form or another.
GREAT idea of Haley's or management to put out a $1000 prize ... seems like past prizes at the site are often in the $300 range. That coupled with not too many present opportunities should get a lot of submissions
(of course, I guess "great" is only that if it pays off business wise.. can't do everything.. I suppose it depends on the reach)
ALREADY UP to 27!
All publicity is good publicity, and positive publicity is even better. I'm sure some of these people must have some social network numbers and I'm sure they're sharing their versions on their networks.
