Can I use MP3's for Karaoke?
Karaoke originated in Japan, and the term means "empty orchestra" in Japanese. Today, almost everybody knows that karaoke refers to a system of playing music and displaying lyrics, so that anyone can become a singer.
You can spend a lot of money on a special karaoke system, but you don't have to. Any computer can play MIDI files and can also play MIDI karaoke files, with the lyrics displayed on the screen as the music plays.
Most MIDI Karaoke files end with '.kar', and in order to play them properly you will need a special player.
You can download any of these free programs to start using Karaoke on your computer:
