I've been a monthly subscriber to THM-Panorama Country for about 4 years. Gone it is now.

Replacement. I figured PHM Country was just as good, if not better. I have a few of their Country discs and I enjoys them. Ordered June, July, August discs. Received in Mail.

However, the discs state CHART HITS KARAOKE, powered by Pop Hits Monthly and produced by Sing It Now. Have I been duped? Graphics are way different than what I remember and I thought Stellar Records was Pop Hits' production daddy?

Does anyone know if there are two different versions Pop Hits AND Chart Hits or did they just change things up a bit.

Also... I only buy for Country. I save Rock/Pop for Sound Choice, but in your opinions would you choose CHARTBUSTER or POP HITS MONTHLY for a monthly COUNTRY Karaoke selection and why?

Myself, I like the sound quality of PHM better or at least I used too.

I'll hang up and listen to your response. 8)

Sing It Now and Pop Hits have been linked for a long time. I don't know what Stellar's current situation is. I suspect they are the same as before.

I personally like Chartbuster better for country, and PHM/Stellar/Sing It Now/whatever for pop.

I don't know about an answer to your question, but I am in a similar boat. Currently, I'm about 8 months behind on my Pop and Country purchases.

I like(d) to buy Top Hit Monthly for their Country, and Pop Hits Monthly for their Pop. Like you, I like Sound Choice for their Rock (and a few other selections). I personally never cared too much for Chartbusters (even tho most of the people on the different forums have raved about them (at least for their Country music)).

Duped? Same boat. I jumped on the Panorama bandwagon when they released their MP3G series. Now they're gone, I decided on Pop Hits Monthly as a suitable replacement.

I ordered the MP3 Value Packs for July, August and September from Karaoke Warehouse to get caught up. What I received was something I could produce on my computer only worse.

Plain paper, black and white inserts off a printer in economy mode, thermal printed labels on the consumer cd's, and brittle, 2 penny CD jewel cases. This reeks of bootleg.

I went to the Pop Hits Monthly website which hasn't been updated since 2006, and called the number only to get a recording.

What the heck is going on here?!?
