Does this indicate a sort of thread only accessible by Premium Members or something? I couldn't find another topic about it so I thought I would post it here.

KV = Karaoke Version,

Once you are allowed access to download, you will then get your answer as to what KV means.

As was stated before, KV is Karaoke-version. Company that makes instrumental tracks, custom accompany tracks, request ect. Just another karaoke company. But sometimes they make tracks no one else has.

OK so I gather that they are not the OFFICIAL stems from the original track but made by another individual or group?

Yes, these all that have KV are from karaoke-version

That is correct. Reproduced by the karaoke company's studio.

I didn't know what KV was when I first joined LR..
I knew they were cover versions but I thought that was
the clever LR way of describing them, ha ha (Kover Version)

not all cover versions on LR are from the Karaoke version company..
some of the game multitracks are cover versions of the original hits..

some are so good that the original artist actually sued..see news item below:

November 2007

Members of rock band the Romantics have sued Activision Publishing over its "Guitar Hero Encore,
Rocks the 80's" videogame, which uses a version the band's "What I Like About You" recorded by
musicians that the band claims sound too much like them.

The suit, filed yesterday in federal District Court in Detroit, claims that the sound-alike recording
of the song improperly imitates the band's sound, which the members have developed since 1979.
The recording makes it "virtually indistinguishable from the authentic version" and confuses consumers
into believing that the band actually recorded the music and endorsed the product, the suit says.

Yeah it was sorta something LR started. Back in 2011 when I started posting a hefty amount of Karaoke Version stems I purchased from the site, I figured I would add the [KV Stems] tag line to title of the corresponding threads. I used KV as I only purchased my packs from the actual Karaoke-Version.com site.
