Abstract
A portable music device which integrates certain features of a personal music listening device with certain features of a personal audio recorder whereby a user can listen through headphones to a music selection containing both the instrumental score and/or integrated vocals. Utilizing the device, the user can sing through a microphone connected to the device while simultaneously listening to one or more parts of the music score/lyric tracks to create a music recording of the user's voice lyrics without recording the instrumental score and/or the integrated vocals. The portable music device may include or work with a system that includes features to procure, store and manage (both electronically and legally) copyrighted music.
