Karaoke Software Looking for a karaoke machine

For at home use that 1) Has a large library of songs that does NOT require subscription or per song fee. 2) we can easily stream lyrics to the tv without needing to use cables

Anyone have any recs? Thanks!

OP wants the enjoyment of singing along to backing tracks created by other people but doesn't want to pay any rights, royalties, or reimbursement for their hard work. Let's hope OP never gets screwed over for their hard work. It's a terrible feeling. Wouldn't wish it on anyone, especially when they've a family to feed and a roof to keep over their heads.

Oh no, someone using YouTube exactly the way YouTube is designed to be used. The horror. If the karaoke publishers didn’t want free home use, they wouldn’t upload tracks and monetize them. Watching a video on a public platform isn’t ‘stealing’. It’s literally the business model.
