I think so. Touring makes you a better dj. Plus people now a days pirate your music anyways.

Apparently music producers aren't worth supporting and they should all turn to DJing

True, but dj's release compilation cds while producers have to perform in some type of live show. You still have to do something live for the fans regardless, but there's alway excemption to that.

if they want

No.

You do realize most artists don't make very much money off of those compilations let alone productions themselves (on a large scale)?

You're saying essentially that for spending days, weeks and sometimes months on a track, the producer should be making NOTHING? That's completely stupid.

I say more credit to the actual producers rather than the DJ's.
