Importing an MP3G

All my imported songs are from regular CDG discs. I have about 1000 discs imported.

I was given a disc and the songs on it are downloaded as mp3 with grapics. I was wondering if I can import it just like a CDG disc, and will it work the same as all my other songs. If it requires me to switch to some different settings when trying to play it, I don't want to bother about it. Not worth it for one disc.

Around here, I know many KJ's that have 75,000 songs or more, and never paid a penny for them. Downloaded all from the Internet.

I know it not legal, and don't want to do that, but it sure makes it hard to compete against that for someone starting out and paying for their discs.

Use Windows Explorer to copy the MP3G songs from the disc to your hard drive. Then

Run Hoster
Click the Import Tracks menu
Click the Import hard drive files command
Click the MP3G button and follow the instructions

Your MP3+G files will be converted to KMA files, stored in the Songs Database and printable in your Song Books.



As to the fellows using illegal MP3G and ZIP files, report them to your local Sherriff. THEY ARE ILLEGAL and will loose all their equipment, and possibly their car/van used to transport the "bootleg" songs. If your Sherriff won't do something about them, raise it to the Attorney General's level.
