Karaoke CDs and DVDs

How do you play your music?

Karaoke CDs and DVDs are the most common type of music files available for personal Karaoke machines. The type of files you choose will depend on the kind of system that you have. If you’re working with a PC, you’ll be reliant on downloads and MP3s. If you’re using a gaming system like Play Station or Xbox you’ll have to buy the games separately.

However, the majority of Karaoke systems run on CDs or DVDs. This makes them easy to use and maintain and also provides a wide variety of musical choice. While purchasing a number of CDs or DVDs is one of the most expensive ways to stock your music library, it tends to be the most reliable.

All of the different genres and recorded hits that you’re looking for are most likely to be released first on CD or DVD. You can also be sure of the quality of the tracks because when it comes to downloading files, you’re going to be running into licensing issues that might mean the track is a knock-off.

CD or DVD?

The choice between CD and DVD is up to the system you have. Most Karaoke systems run off of DVDs that will show the words to the song on a TV type of screen. Some DVDs even include back up videos so that while the singer is watching the words the audience will be watching a music video or some type of scenery.

A system that plays CDs will usually have a smaller screen that just shows the words to the song. A Karaoke CD is a multimedia disc that allows for audio and visual information to be stored. Most will actually be in the form of a CD+G (CD + graphics) disc so that the visual elements are clearer.

Look Online

The internet is a great place to shop for all your Karaoke music needs. Most sites will allow you to sample some of the songs included on a disc so that you’re sure you’re getting the type of music you want. It can be difficult to walk into a store and grab a disc that’ll probably run you well over $30 without hearing any of it.

Discount Discs

While you’re going to end up spending more for a disc then you would for a download, you can find discs (both new and used) at quite reasonable prices. Your best bet is to get online and browse any one of the numerous music websites. You might also be able to find some great deals on used Karaoke CDs and DVDS at garage sales or your local used CD store.
