"rough demo" has been replaced with "competent facsimile of hit record"
There may be 50 other girls behind this one that may have:
better produced demos (by hit producers)
better photos
better vocal pitch / tone
better looks
better songs
pro management already in place
So while the A&R sit in the board room having a weekly A&R meeting and have the propmo pack / photos / local press / list of industry people all wanting to come aboard in front of them and a stack of CD's. Wouldn't you want the sound coming out of the board room speakers to sound like 'surefire hit'?

I'm aware of the popularity of home recording
I just thought everyone sucked (except for me)
