What brands of CD+G have video in addition to having good sound quality. I knwo Sound Choice is usually pretty good at reproduction of the original songs, but they have no videos, just words. I seem to remember when karaoke first came out years ago, everyone had videos. Now they don't. Is there a reason for this?

Pioneer was the make of the LaserKaraoke. The 12" video discs that all had the videos. At the time these were about the only format you could get - DK (the only cdg at the time) was relatively new, but cdg quickly caught on as more & more people did NOT want the video plus it was cheaper to produce the cdg's as they didn't have to go into big productions for the videos. The cdg manu's were able to produce more music & newer music fast than the video companies which eventually drove them out of the market almost entirely. _________________ LIKE Lonman on Facebook - Lonman Productions Karaoke & my main site via my profile!

you can still get some of the old pioneers in laser form and in dvd format...
the shame is dvd karaoke actually picked up a few years after Pioneer went into the market with theirs... after loosing their buttsky in the process!

As far as VCD's I like World Star... They were out for a short time but were grossly marked up on-line.
The videos on World Star were mostly scenery so they aren't real distracting but give a little bit more to see than the blank screens of CDG's. They are also MPX, not needed for karaoke at the club but nice if you don't know the song and want to learn it.

Okay, yeah, most karaoke places I see don't have videos. They seem pretty silly most of the time anyway.

It used to be and old song would take one back 20 or 30 years and halfway around the world..... Now if you see one of the old laser videos it has the same effect and reminds you of a singer havnt seen in years....

Once, sitting at a bar with a group of friends the song was over and one of our KJ's & I started clapping.... Problem was, it was a jukebox!
