Diki, do you know how long this site has been up? I saw it two years ago and it hasn't changed one bit. I haven't heard anything anywhere about it except on this site. Have you seen it in a store, on a webstore?

The answers are, NO. And you probably won't be seeing it any time soon. There's no real market for this "yuppie" karaoke machine. Those who can afford it don't want it and others, maybe like us, see no use for it.

But my purpose in posting this thread was to show how the future may change. Your or my definition of 'musician' or 'entertainer' may be something completely different than what the future holds.

I think this has been a good discussion. It has brought out some very interesting opinions and positions. I leave saying, don't close your mind to any possibility for the future. When I was a kid I never thought my Farfisa would turn out to be a $3600 arranger setup, did you. Hell, a B-3 was only $2400 dollars, with the Leslie.

ps - I still think this would be a great concept for Mikey Maestro to consider. He has the audience it would work with.
