A new niche BitTorent tracker has recently launched under the name karaoke-world.co.uk which pretty much suggests what it has to offer. Japanese or not, file sharing fans who are also passionate about expressing their underrated musical talent can now share content for that particular purpose.

In order to have access to the site’s torrents you have to register here. In terms of lay-out and fonts Karaoke-world is rather disappointing but we do hope some changes will be made in the future (some other colors, for instance, would be much appreciated).

The site is organized in several major categories displayed at the top of the each divided in sub-categories: there’s Networking (with Social groups, Member blogs, Member albums, IRC), Forum & Games, Community (with Forum home, New posts, Today’s posts, Search in forums, Forum rules), Torrents (with a comprehensive list of sub-categories – also the site rules require users to read all personal messages before being able to browse torrents!) User CP, Top 10 (users, torrents, peers, countries, forums), Games etc.

Karaoke-world uses a upload-download ratio system and points out that you have to “distinguish between your overall ratio and the individual ratio on each torrent you may be seeding or leeching.”

Currently, the site lists 920 members; 1,154 torrents; 2,841seeders; 113 leechers; 2,954 peers; 103 threads; 484 posts.

For those willing to help out the Karaoke-world’s team in the most pragmatic way, there’s a button where they can place their donations to the site.
