Good morning Forum,
I recently purchased a Yamaha G2 with a QRS disc system built in. I would like to invest in a lot of music for the piano, but the online retailers seem to be pricy. Are there any alternatives for purchasing this music? Is there anywhere I can look to find a library of used CDs or other options?


Thanks!

You have a variety of options. You could operate the Pianomation from a laptop computer by connecting a USB MIDI cable and playing MIDI files via a program like Van Basco's Karaoke Player. Alternatively, you could use MID2PianoCD to encode MIDI files to Pianomation streams and either burn your own CDs or stream MP3s to the piano from a mobile device via a hardwired connection or Bluetooth adapter connected to the external audio inputs.

The above assumes that you don't mind playing non-QRS music obtained from online sources (try Googling "piano midi files"). I'm not aware of a huge market for used QRS CDs, but they do turn up occasionally on eBay and Craigslist. There are also some third party sources of music, such as this eBay seller.
