Hello. I'm John. I used to be a KJ, but can't stand bars :beermates: (or the owners :dunce:, thereof). I sold off all my disks, but have about 40k songs in mp3+g format on my PC. I wish I had a set-up like this when I was doing gigs :drool:. Now, it's illegal for me to run a show with the files I have, unless I have the original disks, but I'm not interested in doing shows anymore, anyway :giveup:.  Now, I set up KJs with copies of their CD+Gs, rip their CD+Gs to mp3+g and set up all digital computer karaoke systems with rips of their disks. I can even make perfect copies of imperfect disks (scratched or, like SoundChoice, with holes in the metal). You're allowed to use copies and back-ups, so long as you own the original media. If I'd have known that when I was doing gigs, I could have saved a few disks from being damaged and lost :banghead:. I have the ultimate karaoke system, now, and just use it for home use. If I want, though, I can burn a disk to take with me for contests :clapper: with any song ever made on karaoke. I love to sing :banger: and do it nearly every day, in my living room. Everything from The Four Seasons to White Zombie. My tastes are very eclectic and I love being able to practice so many different songs at my leisure.

Hi John!  :wave:

Welcome to the forums! I'm looking forward to hearing some of your vocals soon at Singer's Showcase, ok? Why not sub some Eagles for starters! :wink:

As for burning discs for contests, I'm sure that's ok in the US. But if you ever make it to Finland to Karaoke World Championships, you'll need to have an original disc with you. Copies are not allowed due to Finnish and EU laws.

See you around!
