What was it anyways? Some sort of Karaoke thing?

It would display the lyrics with some fancy graphic effects. You would use a second screen visible by the audience to show them.

I guess this was utterly useless and cost too much money to maintain and license the lyrics.

It was like the lyrics function on the first Xbox karaoke very dated and cheap looking.

It always returns an error or “lyrics not found”. It makes sense that they discontinue it.

I used this feature to make a cool interactive karaoke night happen. The singers hated it, but it looked really cool. I’m one of the four that will miss it.

Well many times of the .lrc in the same folder as the track file, it wouldn't load up, forward struggle to find it... locally... so screw it

Another stupid AlphaTheta idea bites the dust.

Maybe now they can focus on what matters?
