I know most of the brands there, not so much the latin/spanish stuff. Couldn't find a disc or set that I actually needed though.

Billboard and Partytyme are both produced by Sybersound, All Star is owned by AUDIOstream.

An aside to the above is TOP TUNES a Karaoke Warehouse owned label, filed under section 8 in the trademark rules, just this year putting their name and logo in protected suspension.

Don't know but All Star uses the EXACT same backing as Top Tunes and is often superior than any other labels

I have some Top Tunes country collections and although some of them are pretty good, others are just barely useable. Also seems to at times be a significant difference in the audio levels from track to track.

OK, I agree with you, they were not superior on all but really had some that were amazing

Tommy there are programs out there that do a great job of "leveling" all of the songs in your system.

They didn't even hide the fact that they copied from TT.

But I do know SBI has been around quite a while, they have just become more viable within the last few years. I bought custom discs from them back in 2000.

In regard to the thread title, other "Department Store" brands such as Medacy ( Karaoke Party) and Sybersound ( Party Tyme) have produced some very nice tracks as well. As a matter of fact, I love the way Medacy records their Karaoke Party discs, because they are suitable for use as filler music, and I like having the lyrics come up for people to watch and sing along to in their seats- kind of priming the pump.
