Cool! Wonder if SC and CB can order the destruction of KJ's equipment for displaying their trademark logos? :mrgreen:

These were counterfeit machines (like a Numark KMX-02, or pick any pioneer unit, or CAVS) It makes no mention that they were there to clean up pirated karaoke.

Which is kind of sad. I suddenly feel let down by my federal government. As usual, they protect the interest of the big guys (big big electronic equipment manu's) but not us.

Which is smarter? Just sticking to making/selling karaoke, while people all over the world create software FOR FREE that helps you sell it, or trying to compete with them and keeping it a closed loop while you blow your money into an industry (software) that you(the karaoke manu) knows nothing about?

According to the article they bore the "SanDisk" Logo; to which SanDisk stated that they don't manufacture karaoke machines. U.S. Customs' estimate would have each machine selling at a little over $500 each. They must be HD Machines.
