If you use original Sound Choice® discs to put on your karaoke shows, congratulations. You're using your media the way we originally intended, and, in the process, you're getting the highest possible performance from the material.

Because there has been some confusion about what it takes to run a legal karaoke show using Sound Choice® karaoke tracks, we wanted to make certain that original-disc operators know that they're doing it right.

As long as you use original discs, you don't need any permission from us to run your shows, and you don't need to pay us for anything more—not for media-shifting and not for certification.

The reason for this is simple: You paid for your discs (or someone did, anyway), and you are only using them the way we intended when we sold them originally.

Also, if you're an original-disc operator and you find yourself named as a defendant in a lawsuit, we want to know about it immediately. We try hard to avoid naming original-disc operators in lawsuits, but there are certain situations where our investigators might miss that you're using original discs instead of copies or a laptop, for example. We will dismiss any verified original-disc operator from a lawsuit as quickly as we possibly can, to minimize the impact of the lawsuit on your operations. To all of our original-disc operators, we gladly say "thanks"—keep on spinning!

Our predecessor, Slep-Tone Entertainment Corporation, had a policy under which any original CD+G disc owner whose disc became broken or scratched could obtain a replacement at no charge for the disc (a nominal $5.95 fee for shipping and handling of the replacement was charged), as long as that disc remained in stock.

Unfortunately, all CD+G discs have now been discontinued, and we simply do not have the ability to replace broken or scratched discs. We can, however, help you locate a replacement on the secondary market, and we can point you to resurfacing equipment that may help you buff out scratches. Just contact Customer Care for more information.
