Not big on foreign leet speak, me, but I think I know what that means. 
radio shows and reading TA. Im not much of an ID dude though, just kind of listen.
online record stores if that hasnt been mentioned yet.
torrents + tracklists ftw
tranceaddict ftw
0day lolololol
I don't. It's all about the old skool!
1.) Online record stores
2.) Tranceaddict
3.) Radio Mixes
Got to love the Online record stores!!!
Music mags.
Yup what these ppl said - lots people on here do seem to know loads about new released tracks/upcoming but usually because they follow particular record companies or producers.
I think its impossible to be totally updated - I hear tracks that got released 6months ago or even further back and think "whyyy couldnt I have heard this ealier??"
Also I think its a massive problem tryin to ID tracks I wish all tracks had some universal ID process which allowed any machine to read at least artist/track name and display it to the user wherever/whenever its played.
Itd have to be some unique auditable signature...god knows...
One things for sure, always come to TA for latest info + ID'ing !
sets + tracklist

nowadays i can't be arsed to stay up to date anymore
ofcourse it depends on the style of EDM you like most. i personally like trance, progressive, house, and some techno (and everything in between, progressive trance. progressive house, etc .. but not the harder stuff like hardstyle, hardtrance ...). anyway, i listen every week to A State of Trance, Global DJ Broadcast, and sometimes ta Aroudn the World. next to that, i grab as many sets from dj's as i can, and occasionally, sets of dj's im getting interested in, just to explore styles/sounds ive never listened to before.
i usually get those sets from torrents-sites (cant name their URL's). some torrent sites have tons of sets, esp. mixing bowl. they have all EM's, all known radio shows, etc ...
next to that, i grab as many scene releases of new vinyls.
that's how i stay up2date. hope this helps

I try to avoid ASOT at all costs and instead go to crystalclouds.com where there are plenty of new sets by quality trance djs to download for free.
i used to use ASOT, but now ?
