I don't know, ask a japanese person.

*Addendum: You moron, that's what they did - you just opened your yap out of turn.

The Japanese love to drink and do business over drinks. They also are a high tech society, and appreciate American music.

What nation invented karaoke?

Daisuke Inoue of Japan invented the first karaoke machine but failed to patent it. Karaoke means "empty orchestra" in Japanese, coming from "kara" meaning "empty" and "oke", a shortening of "okesutora" the Japanese word for "orchestra". Since Inoue failed to patent the machine, however, the patent was legitimately granted to Roberto del Rosario of the Philippines, who is therefore the patented creator of karaoke machines. Thus, Japan is the nation that invented karaoke and Philippines is the nation that holds the patent right to karaoke machines.
