I would also join this. I believe they will do it right.

Two of the key points that I picked up from their website is:

1. They will go into venues to talk to owners about piracy.
2. They will encourage venues to only hire KJ's that posses a KAPA membership card.

3. (quote from their website) “Any users who has been, knowingly or unknowingly, using illegally acquired karaoke/backing tracks will be invited to discuss the source and provenance of their content / catalogue. They will then be offered the opportunity/option of making a one-off reasonable settlement payment to KAPA UK and the karaoke manufacturers in order to avoid legal action”.

Not the other way around. An “investigator” assuming I’m a pirate because I’m pc based host & be named in a lawsuit. I like kapauk approach of “let’s talk” first. Count me in. I’ll join too!

It's only for the UK. I posed the question if we would be part of it, to Zoom's FB page, where I saw the announcement. I was told that it is JUST for the UK.

I disagree, this is exactly what is needed - ALL the manus jumping on board collectively and not just 1 or two.

Not if it is going to cost us money. I don't want or need the Karaoke Police charging me anything.

And how do you propose they fund their operations?

Don't care. Not my problem. I pay for my music. I pay for me equipment. I pay my taxes. That is quite enough, thank you.

It is your problem. You are just let your ignorance stand in the way of realizing it.

I pay for my car, my gas, my taxes, and my insurance. That's quite enough, I don't need the traffic police charging me.
