I have not used this product in a very long time so I don't know what changes have been made or even if I would understand those changes at this point. I know I'll have to retrain myself on using it. Microstudio 4.006, Vogone 3.30, Keywrite 2.0.1.2 and KHPRO 4.107
It is cheaper to upgrade just KHPro, which is $24.99. Not to sound commercial, but I suggest you get it now. That's all I'll say about that.

If the MUSIC you have has been bought (royalties paid), then adding lyrics to it - to my knowledge - is legal. Use Google and enter the first lyric line and you will find hundreds of sites publishing the lyrics.

If Amazon's songs are MP3 or WMA without DRM protection, they should play in Hoster and KHPro. Buy and download ONE song and try it... before you spend LOTs of money. As to legal, see above answer.

Have you tried Vogone 3.31 to remove the vocals from audio files you may already have? We have a demo of 13 songs (compared to the LTSound VE3 $2700 box). You'll be surprised how good we can remove the vocals.

NOTE: Vogone has evolved a LOT, so if you are back many versions, I'd upgrade that too. You can try the demo first if you want.

See above, buy the KHPro upgrade, and/or all the upgrades. That'll be about 50% of the new Suite price.

I don't see any other way to open that software at this point.
KHPro uses no file with the extension .mdw that I am aware of. You will need to post the entire message. I suspect you may have misread, but then maybe I'm wrong.
