77 14

Hi everyone, you might have noticed that the SingStar servers have been down for maintenance. This is because we’re getting ready to launch a shiny new SingStar Holiday update to version 4.30.

Firstly, and most importantly, this update fixes the missing songs / videos and other issues a number of you found with the previous version update. We’re really sorry that we caused these errors in the last SingStar update, and want to thank all of you for being so patient while these problems were being fixed and tested thoroughly. Your feedback to us on these problems has been invaluable, so thank-you! Hopefully, once you’ve updated you’ll find everything back to normal : )
