I kind of side with one point of Jams posts.
Did any particular artists representatives take offense to unauthorized use of thier artists works?
We will deal with the burnmeisters and crooks of the karaoke world until the industry takes a stand.

We support the use of backup copies as insurance for our shows. The CDG industry is not bound by law to keep a replacement stock for X amount of years like automobile manufactures. Also most CDG mfgs. are licensee's not copyright holders. The laws for illegal duplication are federal. Copyright infringement is the responsibility of the copyright holder.
In our case the club owner pays a license fee to ASCAP once a year in order to have karaoke. He also must pay the State of California a Fee for each pool table. The juke box also must be licensed each year. That is a story in itself. Anyone seen the new Bose digital juke box? The server is at a seperate location. The owner calls in to request new songs and they are downloaded to the club. How's that for a can of worms?
