They are from manufacturers and distribution companies that sell a variety of karaoke equipment and discs.

By the way, did anyone else know that Sound Choice sells karaoke files online as mpegs instead of mp3+g?
Seems like an odd decision to me.

Mpeg as in video files or mpeg+G (which is mp3+g)? Are they downloadable or sold on custom disc?
Those distribution companies still have to be licensed to do so by the producers and should be able to confirm that to you. Sound Choice could do it, because they are the producers of the karaoke songs.
What the article George is referencing is a legal precedence for the karaoke producers to go after the KJs who are sharing their files with other KJs to increase their listings. It actually would be great in my opinion if they would. Then the rest of us could earn a decent fee for our services.
