Thanks for the insight.
A single mix or multiple mixes?

For multiple mixes getting them to sound like they belong together on an album, are well balanced in frequency and level, noise is at a minimum, are edited/arranged/QCed on the final media properly, and getting the opinion of an experienced audio pro, an ME may be useful.

For a single mix that is going to be downloaded, less of the above may be needed.
