I think it's not fair how DJs are rated nowdays. In my opinion, headliners need to be separated into three or more categories (e.g. house, trance and techno) and then get their ratings within their category. Due to the fact that the Europeans and Asians are crazy about trance, we're seeing all the trancers occupying top 10 spots meaking virtually impossible for djs who specialize in House music to get to the top 3. Personally, that's how I would rate dj
House Trance
1. Steve Lawler 1. Ferry Corsten
2. Nic Fanciulli 2. Armin Van Buuren
3. Desyn Masiello 3. Tiesto
4. Hernan Cattaneo 4. Markus Schulz
5. Deep Dish 5. Johan Gielen
I can see where you're going with this but I think you should just spend your time looking for new, interesting music rather than worrying about who's #1 or #304.

According to you, dj polls are waste of time, if #1 and #304 are the same things for you, but it just happens so that the rest of the world cares about ratings and that's why dj mag has them. And, the so called new and interesting music that you were talking about just happens to be created by the djs who are in the top 100, not by someone who is 1672nd place.
