I agree, but to a more serious degree. You see, I own the bar. We do karaoke 6 nights a week. Not only would serious problems cost me a single gig, it would cost me more like a $500,000 investment. My entire existence, along with my families livelihood, is wrapped up in karaoke with Hoster as the centerpiece.


Now, with that said, I assure you that MTU and the beta testers (me included) try their level best to make sure that everything is working before release. It is completely impossible to eliminate all the problems. Not only are the hardware configurations endless, there are still plenty of boneheads who insist on running additional programs in the background. These same individuals are unwilling or unable to make the changes needed to assure a smooth running machine. Add to that, the questionable nature of the source of the song selection, and you can't possibly account for everything that can go wrong. All these issues can, and will, be fixed. It is just a matter of time.

Do you thing that MTU is purposely trying to sabotage you? They want exactly the same thing that you want. Your success is intimately tied to theirs.
