1. A jukebox device, comprising: processing resources, including at least one processor and a memory;a touch screen display device;a payment acceptor; anda storage device comprising instances of media available for playback via the jukebox device;wherein the processing resources, the touch screen display device, and the payment acceptor cooperate with one another to cause the jukebox device to function in at least first and second different modes,wherein the first mode is a normal jukebox operation mode that is configured to enable a first partial subset of the instances of media to be played back on a pay-per-play basis, andwherein the second mode is a karaoke jukebox operation mode that is configured to enable a second partial subset of the instances of media to be played back on a pay-per-play basis, the first and second partial subsets being different from one another, andwherein, as a part of the second mode, the touch screen display device presents a first set of screens that each list at least a portion of the instances of media in the second partial subset of the instances of media in a manner that resembles a book having multiple pages,each said page including at most a predefined maximum number of entries corresponding to the portion of the second partial subset of instances of media, and each said entry indicating a song name and an artist associated with the corresponding instance of media that is selectable for playback via the jukebox device,wherein the first set of screens each include a common set of control elements for re-organizing and navigating through the book,wherein, as a part of the second mode, the touch screen display device is configured to display a performer identifier screen, the performer identifier screen including an identifying name of a user who has selected an instance of media for a karaoke-type performance, andwherein the identifying name of the user who has selected the instance of media for the karaoke-type performance is automatically determinable in response to a user providing valid credentials for a recognized social networking site that is external and unrelated to the jukebox device's provider. 2. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein: the common set of control elements includes previous and next page buttons that are selectively enabled in allowing a user to navigate through the book, andactuation of the buttons causes an animation to be displayed, in relation to the book, to simulate a consistent and mechanical page-turning operation and correspondingly display entries for a new page. 3. The jukebox device of claim 2, wherein: the touch screen display device is configured to receive user input at or near a corner of the book; andthe processing resources are configured to, in accordance with received user input and in relation to the book, create a custom animation that simulates a page turning in a manner that generally tracks received user input across the book and correspondingly display entries for a new page. 4. The jukebox device of claim 3, wherein animations that simulate consistent and mechanical page-turning operations and custom animations that simulate pages turning in manners that generally track received user input both temporarily show portions of entries on each side of the turning pages. 5. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein: the first set of screens includes a first screen for an artist-organized book, and a second screen for a song-organized book, andthe common set of control elements includes elements for switching between the first and second screens. 6. The jukebox device of claim 5, wherein the books associated with the first and second screens each include entries for all instances of media in the second partial subset of instances of media. 7. The jukebox device of claim 6, wherein the first set of screens includes a third screen for displaying a songbook, the songbook including entries for only some of the instances of media in the second partial subset of instances of media. 8. The jukebox device of claim 6, further comprising a songbook selection screen, the songbook selection screen including representations of a plurality of songbooks, each said songbook including entries for only some of the instances of media in the second partial subset of instances of media. 9. The jukebox device of claim 8, wherein each said songbook includes entries for a preselected list of instances of media in the second partial subset of instances of media, each preselected list being associated with a theme appropriate for the respective songbook. 10. The jukebox device of claim 8, wherein the songbook selection screen includes at least some of the control elements from the set of common control elements. 11. The jukebox device of claim 10, wherein the control elements from the set of common control elements that are included in the songbook selection screen include the elements for switching between the first and second screens, and the common set of control elements includes an element for switching to the songbook selection screen. 12. The jukebox device of claim 11, wherein the first set of screens includes a third screen for displaying a songbook selected from the songbook selection screen. 13. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein: the common set of control elements includes a generally linear arrangement of selectable alphanumeric characters, andselection of one of the alphanumeric characters via the touch screen display device advances pages in the songbook so that a first entry beginning with the selected alphanumeric character appears with respect to the book. 14. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein the identifying name of the user who has selected the instance of media for the karaoke-type performance is specifiable in connection with a virtual keyboard on the touch screen display device. 15. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein the identifying name of the user who has selected the instance of media for the karaoke-type performance is automatically determinable in response to a user logging into the jukebox device. 16. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein the identifying name of the user who has selected the instance of media for the karaoke-type performance is automatically determinable in response to a user logging into the jukebox device by providing valid credentials for the recognized social networking site. 17. The jukebox device of claim 1, wherein avatars are displayable on the jukebox device and/or an external display connected to the jukebox device, in connection karaoke performances by users who have provided corresponding images and who have successfully identified themselves to the jukebox device. 18. The jukebox device of claim 17, wherein avatar images are retrievable from a social networking site and/or capturable using a camera connected to the jukebox device. 19. The jukebox device of claim 17, wherein avatar images are retrievable from the recognized social networking site. 20.
