First Available on Smart TVs, New Experiential
and Interactive Music Service Brings A Fresh Approach to Karaoke at
Home
LOS
ANGELES, Dec. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Cineverse (NASDAQ: CNVS), a next-gen entertainment
studio, today announces the launch of an innovative, new connected
TV app powered by the Company's industry-leading Matchpoint™
technology – Verse Karaoke. The app caters to fans of
all genres of music and is launching first as a free ad-supported
video-on-demand (AVOD) app on Smart TVs. The service will also be
available on the web at www.versekaraoke.com and additional
distribution will be announced in the coming months.
Verse Karaoke is designed to be an interactive, musical
experience that brings the fun karaoke experience into living
rooms. Verse Karaoke combines the power of a professional Karaoke
machine with Matchpoint, Cineverse's proprietary streaming
technology. Verse enhances the traditional karaoke experience by
integrating Smart TV functionality and leverages Matchpoint's
robust personalization capabilities for a more engaging and
user-friendly experience. While one participant sings, others can
seamlessly browse and search the extensive karaoke catalog by
scanning a QR code with a smartphone. Additionally, Verse provides
access to full song lyrics for all tracks, allowing participants to
review and rehearse songs beforehand. The app also features
improved song lyric video playback to offer a much more engaging
full-screen video experience.
In partnership with Digitrax Entertainment, Inc., a
leading producer of music for karaoke, the Verse Karaoke app
includes access to decades of fully licensed hit songs in nearly
every genre with new songs added weekly.
"Although karaoke apps have been available for decades, nobody
has truly optimized the karaoke experience to suit the capabilities
of today's Smart TVs. Music is a popular form of family
entertainment, so it was important for to us to improve the home
karaoke experience by utilizing the advanced technology available
to us," said Tony Huidor, Chief
Operating Officer & Chief Technology Officer of Cineverse.
"We have expanded the capabilities of our Matchpoint
Blueprint platform to bring an improved karaoke experience to
market as we look to redefine how music fans interact with karaoke
music in their homes and autos."
"Having been immersed in the karaoke industry since 1987 and
with over 30 years of experience recording karaoke tracks, I can
confidently say that Verse Karaoke is the most innovative and
exciting development I've ever witnessed in the industry," stated
Joe Vangieri CEO of DigiTrax Entertainment.
