Disney objected? Didn't Disney license it out?

Disney turned a cheaply made "for-tv" movie into a huge franchise by whoring it out like never before.

Well since Disney is authoring their own karaoke discs now (or at least licensing to one company only), I would understand why it's a no no for other companies.

The way the UK laws are they can make individual songs from a show/artist but they can not make a disk that has more than a portion of the songs from a single artist/show on a single disk without approval.

That means for zoom if they want to make for example 15 songs from HSM 3 they would have to put 5 songs on each of 3 different disks and mix them with 10 other songs....


Not too much of a problem for KJs to get the 3 disks if we really want them, and if Zoom decides to make all of the desired songs....

BUT disney does a pretty good job of doing their own karaoke recently with the origional tracks...

From MCPS

Does that mean if you download legal mp3g from zoom like from mp3gstore.com you can only download 5 songs to put on you system?

No only that the laws were written for CDs and not downloads.....

Since the CD/DVD is still a major portion of the Karaoke sales and probably a majority companies like ZOOM are going to make CDs and then possibly later sell the tracks individually.

Only a few companies seem to be download first (like SBI).

But in the past some of the custom disks you could get made from the UK had a limit of 5 tracks from any one artist, probably still the case.

In that situation you would have to buy a few disks and mix up songs to get a bunch of songs from a single artist in custom disks.

Zoom was the first company I think to allow downloads. Unsure if they still do or not. They USED to do it 128kbps, and there were some complaints about that!
