I got the email this morning!

It's very limited, but they say they will be adding new tracks every day, so SCORE.

Also, The tracks are $2.50 until Thanksgiving day :)

YAY for content!

Only about 1200+ songs out of their normal 15K+ catalog available at this time too, but it is a start!!! Hopefully they can do like k.net & get stuff licensed fully for US!

I downloaded 2 mp3g files this morning, Drifting & Time by Sarah McLachlan. Problem playing.

So, I tried extracting (tho’ it’s already been zipped), mp3+g toolz, still no go. Re-downloaded, still the same. 'positive not my hosting software because everything plays just fine. ‘waiting for an answer from their help desk.

Unzipping and then immediately rezipping with whatever zip program you are using on your machine usually fixes most zip file problems.

Always great to have more purchase options for Karaoke music. Hope they can secure more US rights for a lot more of their catalog.


Site design does need a bit of work. -

Play option not being available right from the list page is a drawback. Users are used to having the play sample button right on the list page. Having to click a song to open a new page and then clicking again to play the sample is not a well designed site.

Graphics and music don't sync in the online player samples.

I've never been a big fan of the way Sunfly makes their graphics.

I'm excited to have another resource, but since I do a lot of my downloading on the "fly" I'll avoid the Sunfly till the problems are fixed.

As long as there is new material available to the US, who the F cares if their graphics are a little off?

Higher priced than when it was from tricerasoft and downloads only, but SBI main site....

Oh, and by the way, they also carry SunFly.

I think the general consensus is that we have another AMERICAN site to buy from, and that makes us happy.

Call me "Mr. Conspiracy Theory" if you like but I wouldn't get too excited just yet..... once again, there is a mouse in the house...

Unless you can tell me how.... exactly how...

Sunfly can offer an Adele disc for sale in the U.S.????

Think about it....

Me, Obviously. I'm sure that I can't be the ONLY ONE. There are plenty of people out there buying SBI and MRE tracks because the graphics are done better. Since the music is the same; why else would people choose to buy those brands over Sunfly?

I agree... it appears as though they have made some critical mistakes out of the gate. They settled their issues with Sony, thus the small amount of songs available (1260). But they apparently don't grasp the concept of the US requirement to have license with all shareholders of a song and they can't create custom discs in the UK under PRS and sell them to the USA....

I don't know if it makes a difference, but the Adele songs can only be purchased on a custom disc. The download feature for all Adele songs is disabled.

Yep...makes a difference. The PRS license clearly stipulates that a UK license covers only EU.
