When American Accompliment went out of the cassette tape karaoke business. I recall the general manager telling me how laser and CDGs would never survive. I bought all of his remaining stock. I purchased one of the early Microstudio and Karaoke Home Producer software. And i wrote many hours writing CDGs to those old cassettes. Got a treasure of music from those old cassettes. Some of my patrons when i tell them, that they are singing to a disc that came from a cassette, they are amazed. Some of the guys from the early American Accompliment outfit, went and help form Chartbuster. A few of them are still at chartbuster today.

I salute you for taking the time to convert your old cassettes. That's something I wanted to do also, but never had the time. I know I have songs that I still have not seen come out on CD. I have a library of over 100 cassettes that I sang with & created books full of pages with all the songs.
