From what i understand, from a very good source. Down around the greater chicago area. Clubs are no longer hiring KJ's with "computer hard driven presentation systems." It started actually with the DJ's, now includes kj's as well. They tell them to go home get their disc and come back and see'um. Guess who this hurts besides us kj's? Now i can't verify this, but it does come from what i consider a very very reliable person. Trickle down effect? we'll see.....
P.S. I want to thank everyone who reads this forum, and the dj forum,non members alike. And those that have found my email address somehow and sent me emails. But what do you expect me to do about this mess? Further i have no interest at the present time in being a spokes person for anyone. |

If you ever come across a Sound Choice 8148 (used is fine), let me know - I want a back up for mine as it has a small crack in the center.

Sad thing is computers in general are not illegal, a kj using discs but running a program like Hoster for the show - using it as a disc player only, not a hard drive player, still gives the kj all the computer bells & whistles as far as scrolling marquee, rotation, music, instabuttons, etc,.....but keeps it to the clubs expectations if they require the kj to use discs only.

I think you guys have beat this horse to death. So how about we leave this for facts about the cases pending and use the other thread about KIAA to discuss the peripheral items around the legal issues. As far as looking for out of production or hard to find disks this needs to be in a separate thread as it doesn't even apply here.
One noted problem here as I see it is the confusion over the KIAA whose actions were only involved in the Arizona cases and the Sound Choice lawsuits in TN, VA, and NC. The later is strictly a Sound Choice action with no KIAA involvement that I can find. ANd no I am not a member of KIAA either. ![]() ![]() Thanks to all for their thoughts and views on the subject.

yeah..suposin we could close up this thread if you wish dale..i don't like to see things git off track either. But i sure would like to keep at least one KIA{A} {sound choice} thread going if possible. I use it for educational purposes, and to hear other peoples idea's and feelings on these matters. Keeps up to date on whats going on with this situation in other parts of the nation. And since my snailmail and newspapers are delivered daily by a guy riding a horse, i keep up to date online..wayyyyyyyyyy up here. I am so far out in the sticks, i have seen bobcat, wolves, coyote's and even badgers in my backyard. hehehe...anyway you know whats best...You are a super moderator, and wonderful person. Thanks for keeping this thing all together. And thank you mtu for having this open free help and discussion center.
Thank You, on behalf of "The George Show" "Excellence in Vocal, Variety, and Instrumental Entertainment." |

I am not going to close it yet. Just want to keep it on track so we can follow what is going on with the lawsuits.

Sorry about asking about any particular disc here, however looking for discontinued/OOP discs in general does apply in a sense as those that have to delete their files from the computer may have to start looking if they want to keep the same songs once the lawsuits are settled.

Part of the damages that Sound Chioce is asking for (if they go to court and find someone guilty) is that their equipment be seized. That means the individual will be out of business and won't need to buy disks unless they plan on starting over after paying all the damages, fines, legal fees, etc. Not really very likely.

He he is one of those who has bought a hard drive with massive amounts of songs, that might cost him more than the costs for court.

Actually I have receipts for every new disc I ever purchased, although all the used discs I buy off of customers - no. However they are looking for original discs, not the receipts - to my understanding.

Hang on a sec while i compose myself....
ok i think i can type now.... let me make sure i have this right. A receipt for every single CD+G disc you have ever purchased in your lifetime? And i thought my grandma was just a little strange because she insist on saving the instruction manual to her old singer pump sewing machine. When i visit quinns music for my monthly chartbuster, i don't ever recall asking for a receipt. My local music store and i have that type of business relationship. Hey walt, i can see right now, if sound choice came aknockin' on my door, i'd be knee deep in a bucket of sunshine.... ![]() |
