Me too. Wasn't there a guy who had to drop out of the competition a couple of years ago because he'd had a previous record contract? Maybe it was from Australian Idol. Can't remember.
If they have dropped this rule then I'm sure it's because the 'talent pool' out there is getting smaller. This has been running for a few years now so I'm guessing they are having to scrape the barrel. I also note that a few contestants now are 'rejects' from previous AI auditions. Maybe they have improved, but I reckon they have lowered the bar so they can attract enough people.
