Free Karaoke MP3+G Downloads

One of the most often asked karaoke questions is "where can I download karaoke songs for free?". Typically this would refer to MP3+G karaoke song files because this is the most popular format and offers the most song titles. At one time MP3+G files could only be obtained by ripping the songs from karaoke CD+G discs. Now they can be purchased from "pay-per-song" download sites and some manufacturers are selling them on discs. With so many sources you would think that they would be easy to find for free on a lot of websites.

The fact is that the karaoke music manufacturers keep an eye out for any websites that give away their songs or sell them without their permission. When they find them they are quickly shut down. To get around this some people will offer torrent downloads of karaoke songs or share them over peer to peer networks like BearShare uses. The two big problems here are that the song selection is very limited and the chance of contracting a computer virus is high.

There is another option that far and away outdoes the others. This is the secure file sharing channels of the IRC (Internet Relay Chat). The IRC has been around almost as long as the internet. Users create communities of like minded individuals who share all types of files. The karaoke file sharing community is quite large. The combined collections of karaoke songs means that virtually every karaoke song ever released can be found and downloaded. So why doesn't everyone use the IRC karaoke channels?

For one thing, most of these channels require that you be invited by another member. This is difficult to overcome if you don't know any members. Another thing is that each group has their own IRC script that must be configured properly. This includes acquiring, installing, and setting up the client to download and share song files. This can be quite daunting for the average computer novice. But there is a workaround.

There is a product called the MP3+G Download Guide that contains everything you need to get set up to start downloading karaoke songs from the IRC. It includes the IRC client program and very easy to follow step by step illustrated instructions. Within an hour of purchasing this program you will be searching for and downloading all the karaoke songs you want. These are professional quality karaoke songs like you see the professionals use. They are all in the MP3+G format that can be used to create karaoke CD+G discs or played with virtually any software karaoke player.
