How to Copy a Karaoke CD for Free

If you have karaoke CDs that you need to back up, you may be struggling using traditional disc burning tools. Karaoke CDs are created in accordance to the CD+G disc format. This means that conventional programs such as Windows Media Player or Windows Explorer will not be able to copy the discs. Karaoke creation and copying programs are costly, but there is one available option if you want to back up CD+Gs for free. You can create an ISO image of the disc and then burn that ISO. ISO images are complete replica image files.
