I DJ and spin mostly electro house, I use Ableton Live for putting my Mixed CD's together, and I now spin CD's instead of vinyl due to the acceccibilty of digital files and sites like beatport. Here is one of my latest mixes with all new releases from late theis sumer. It's a good mix, take a listen and respond if you will:

I've been playing for 12 years, so I want to have fun playing serato, and getting the music I love, easily and cheaply. 12 bucks for 2 songs is insane.

im not slagging off vinyl, if you love it you love it.
but i am a realist enough to realise that its a dying thing.
i feel like all the vinyl i've got is a deadweight that is taking up a lot of space at my house.
ok maybe one day when all the vinyl shops have finally closed down and everyone is djing with mp9's then your vinyl might be worth a small fortune.
but then, how many other people around the world have the same idea as you and probably have the same records - that lowers the price of what yours is worth. plus there would be a hugely limited market for selling it because of the inflated prices.
and in the end, what is it? a bit of plastic with some music on it.i used to have a very pro-vinyl and fuckthedigital revolution point of view, you cant fight progress/technology though - particularly when it is better and more convenient in so many ways.
- Vinyl has been dying for decades... but still it goes on.moth

Ihave sold of my prog house and breakbeat vinyl in the past weeks, Nothing touches the quality of 320kbps mp3 files and wav files burnt onto CD's. Plus almost every track I play out has additioal production by myself and this could not be achieved without digitial files and CD burning. Please guys, listen to my mix above, I have 9 others from this year ALL ELCETRO HOUSE if you would like me to post more...

Nice no more typing in notes. Kon I whole heartedly agree that it is always about the dj and his own ability to work the crowd. Mp3's are just another form of technology that I use. Hell if the song is available in mp3 for 2.00 why not buy it instead of the vinyl? I simply burn it to cd and use my Pioneers. I am what the call a digger though in that I love the sound of vinyl and the rarity of those tunes you can't find anywhere. They have been trying to kill vinyl since cd's came about, but as long as their are rare tunes and the ability to scratch and beat juggle I will always support vinyl, it's warm sound, and the art of dj'ing.

The guy that owns the pub a block away from my house owns the most expensive 7" in the world. "Do I love you (indeed i do)" by Frank Wilson £15,000.
Now THATS an investment, with only 2 copies surviving its always going to be worth a lot of money.
I've got a lot of pretty rare soul n funk seven inches but nothing over £100 worth let along £15,000!!!!- and what's the address? :)amongthemasses

amongthemasses, I feel you! That is why I am holding onto my old calssic vinyl, however; I have started recording them into wav files for use with Serato. The club I play at has the serato/Rane mixer, so I dont even have to have the hardware. I just have serato which is free setup on my computer. I wish more cl
