Question What About www.mycdg.com

In preperation for getting Hosterized and probably buying a new computer to do it with if I can't verify all the right stuff on one of the two existing laptops, I'm doing a lot of reading and soaking up some excellent advice from the folks on this forum. Thanks to you all

I appreciate the responses from everyone on everything so far. One of the things that had been bothering me slightly is the way assortments of CD+G files are marketed. For $ 19.99 you can get a collection of 20 songs that were once hummed in the Jacksonville, FL bus station by the shoe shine man. OK! just joking, but not by much.

Today I discover www.mycdg.com. It looks like you can pick out single songs, add them to the CD+G that you order and get a CD+G that only has songs that you want. It also looks like you pay about twice as much per song to do that - however.

I'm not looking at the Hoster software as a way to be a KJ or do an open mike show, so all of your jobs are still secure.

I'm trying to develop backing music for a "guitar picking" and "struggling to sing" some, one man solo act for bars, restaurant and small clubs.

I don't see any value, to me, of having a dozen top hit songs in a particular style if I am only going to do one or possibly two of them in my show. I don't need a big library of potential songs like the KJ would need. If I'm not going to perform it, I don't need it.

Question: Has anyone used this service? Is it legit? Are the CD+Gs high quality or problematic etc. and in general do you have any advice about www.mycdg.com at all?

Thanks

Ron

It is absolutely Legit and it has mostly Sound Choice tracks whick are the best. Sure it costs a bit, but think of how much more it would cost if you went out and bought all the regular cdg's that have the songs you want.

Thanks, in listening to the demos I thought the Sound Choice tracks sounded a bit more professional and higher quality but I'm listening over a dinky winky little speaker system here.

Djmadmaxx,
Yeah! Thanks. You had mentioned that on another post I think and I already looked that over. That would be a neat format for me.
