cd vs mp3 vs vinyl

Which format is better to be a dj in 2010?

laptop dj's are popular these days (especially my friend who's a fag) and cd's are cheaper than vinyls, but most of my favorite songs are available on vinyl only. which format is recommended?

nothing is only avaliable on vinyl. you can rip it. the other way on the other hand is. and do a search. and stay in music discussion. or write a blogg.

+1, especially since it means you can alternate between mp3's and vinyl.
