LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - December 22, 2008) - The Karaoke Channel Online, a subsidiary of Stingray Digital Media Group, announces today the launch of a new platform that incorporates social sharing tools and full-screen mode, taking online karaoke to the next level. The new features include a full-screen mode that allows for increased visibility and themed aesthetics, as well as a sharing application. Users can instantly connect with friends to send karaoke recordings via email or posting to social media Web sites Facebook, MySpace and Deli.cio.us.
The Karaoke Channel Online is the first to offer its users the ability to record themselves singing along to their favorite hits and then share their rendition with friends and family through email or posting to social networking Web sites. In just one click, karaoke fans are diverted to their social networking site of choice and can dole out their masterpiece to their online community!

MySpace allows songs to be added to a post, blog or bulletin, letting buddies add kudos and commentary, while Deli.cio.us includes a bookmarking feature. Now a group of friends can sing along in unison to songs like "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" and send it off to family and friends to spread the holiday cheer. These new sharing applications help facilitate a stronger sense of community within the online karaoke and social networking atmospheres.
The easy-to-use and stylish full-screen mode application will increase the visibility of the lyrics on the computer monitor and provide various themed options, creating a more enjoyable party experience. With new background themes added continuously, The Karaoke Channel Online ensures the party is never dull.
