Description

A portable CD Player, that plays CDs manufactured with a text file of lyrics incorporated with the CD and displays the lyrics while playing the song. It could also play normal CDs where the lyrics display screen is left blank. The design could be disc-shaped, with a diameter of 6 inches with the top section displaying the following buttons - On/Off, Volume Fast Forward, Rewind, Play, Open CD drawer, Lyrics On—Off, and Light for Lyrics Display. The unit could also display two LCD screens, one a display screen for lyrics and the other a standard display screen for track numbers. The design could also feature Volume control buttons, audio phone jack, and AC adapter jack. Consequently, this apparatus allows the display of lyrics as and when the song is played and thus would allow the users to sing along with the correct words of the songs or learn the lyrics of the song.
