Has anyone heard of new copyright lawsuits?

I understand that. In fact, I spent a good while reading the 28-page case...

Thanks for the info. Guess I'll just get that glazed over look in my eyes when someone starts telling me what I've done is illegal by converting every single song I have purchased legally to my computer....

Ditto, thats why I stay out of those forum debates. Just when things quiet down some armchair lawyer will show up and explain why he's right and youre wrong and how he's so much smarter than than the REAL lawyers hired by MTU and others to study the issue. If it were undebateably illegal, Sound Choice and others would be going after us (and MTU for providing the tools to commit a crime) instead of spending years just telling us it's illegal.

I try to use common sense and prayer. As Sam says there are too many people with too many opinions. If you are happy with the way you are handling your business, keep on going no matter what others say. If you are not comfotable with the way you are doing business, change it. MTU's research is the most compete effort I've seen by anyone to try and make sense of this issue.

Remember, if (and that's a BIG if) a lawsuit is filed against any Karaoke host, it's up to the host to defend their actions regardless of what others do. We all sail our own ship!

(Sam, I hope I'm not sounding like an armchair lawyer. )
