These days, the cassette demo is passé, and CD-R is definitely the way to go, especially with the improved sound quality, convenience and ease of creating CDs. But when doing demos, take the next step: Create a mixed mode (audio and data) disc with PDFs of your lead sheets and text files of your lyrics, and note these on your printed CD label. And to go with your demo's audio mix, include an instrumental (no vocal) version as a second track--also marked clearly on your CD label--so artists can easily "try on" your song without having to record a new version, just to see if it fits!
