#4 - When you do contact the karaoke manufacturer they will probably send you a license agreement. It could be a flat fee that covers "X" number of copies for the particular project or album. They will tell you that you will need to also contact the copyright holder, and if they are paying their royalties, that is easy for them to look up and give you that information. They've already spent the time doing the research and with a few keystrokes can find that information.
Record keeping is very important in case you ever get audited by BMI, Harry Fox, ASCAP, etc.
Make the client do the legwork. It is the client that will be using the license agreement, not you. Make sure you see signed license agreements before making copies.
