Just wondering how much everyone spends usually and where they spend it?
I tend to spend about 30 bux every 2 weeks or so at beatport.

Well thats my opinion imo. Why should I pay for crappy mp3?
When I like the song, I buy the vinyl, its a lot better spent money.

so simple yet so effective
same here till my comp shitted out on me... prolly the cause of my comps death but knowing me thats exactly what id go back to doing if my comp were fixed
saves a lot of wasted money on tunes which in turn is spent on tunes
note: had to make that my quote, yes, pathetic, but makes the most sense to me so

Well crappy mp3 i wouldn't call a 320KBs mp3, as offered by beatport, or the original WAV on cdr, which would be totally indistinguishable from the vinyl.

What do you see on mp3? If you pay for download, you get mp3, you can burn it on cd, give it to a friend, or to milion people on the net maintaining the same quality.
Try to duplicate vinyl and get the same quality cost-free.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what your trying to say?
i don't use it that much.......mostly b/c i only have 1 cdj and I'm afraid if I ahve too much on cd then i won't be able to use them as i would like to since i can't go from cd to cd
Anyone else have this problem?

You really are idiots. I try not to be a negative person.... First of all, file sharing talk on this forum is not allowed. Second of all, there is really nothing distinguishable between the wav and record version. Both are remastered by the same label. Dont turn this into every other vinyl vs cd topic.
Beatport is a terrific site that offers another way to get music besides vinyl. I own both turntables and CD tables and if I can get something via download versus a 10 dollar vinyl I will. Otherwise I will pay the money for the vinyl if the song is not available any other way.
Check out version 2.0 by the way. Anyone who knows anything about digital downloads knows this is the tops.
To be back on topic, I probably spend roughly 100 bucks a month.

As of right now, nothing but I learnt how to use a CDJ 1000 a few days ago so i'll be spending much more on mp3's. However, i'll still buy vinyls, just as long as I can play both sides, I hate paying $20 for one side.
