However, "even though it is impossible to please everyone-it is clear that being a live production we have ever faced technical problems ... and we want to continue in the same tenor. To cover the cost of investment required to collect the tickets for the wizard to continue giving the highest quality. However we designed the scale so that tickets which are more bronze and silver are more accessible.

How do you choose the artists who perform in the show?
The Big Apple Music Awards Foundation  will be attending a committee formed by TV Foundation  members who have experience in this field. Once the nominees are known, are formed four groups that fight for space. The Foundation seeks to maintain a balance that reflects balance in categories, sex, machine, etc. The producer intends to have a show that is artistic and bearing the required cadence, artists, labels and managers want their space program and the Director just want ratings. In principle, priority is given to the nominated artists but also gives space to the personality of the year and some special prizes. Moreover, in many cases even when a program is to be "ideal" many artists have committed their agenda and therefore constantly have to balance the program.

Why do I sometimes see the nominees and winners are not known or their issues are not popular?
The Big Apple Music Awards Foundation   rewarded with the vote of the membership to excellence and quality of recording. The voting members of the Foundation does not always follow the market trends as they are all professionals in this field and demand different qualities to those required by normal audience and fans.

What are the voting rules?
When the voting returns come in the mail to the membership, participants must refrain from making open promotion related to the Big Apple Music Awards. There are no "pre-nominations" and not allow the exchange of vows. Managers that call other managers to discuss strategies to contribute to the disqualification of the product and affect artists. The process will be of the value that we give those who participate in the process, and that will be nominated or winning remains important in the career of an artist.
