Digital karaoke is the future of the karaoke business.
Two types of Karaoke in digital format:
- CDG - digital karaoke on compact disc media
- MP3g - karaoke music files hosted on and ran from a PC
The industry is moving from CDG to MP3g.
MP3g Digital Karaoke Files
Karaoke songs are stored on the hard drive of a computer in the MP3+G or some other compressed format. The songs are played with karaoke "hosting" software. The hosting software has many needed features such as digital key control, next song, song / artist search, singer history, and so on.
MP3+g or MP3g is the karaoke version of the MP3. In order to utilize MP3 for Karaoke a second file is created which contains the graphics for the display of the lyrics. This has a .cdg file extension. Both files together form an MP3+g (sometimes MP3g) karaoke track. You can play these tracks on your computer using special karaoke software such as WinCDG or burn them to a blank disc in .BIN format and they will play as normal CDG karaoke discs.
