Oakey no doubt has more money than BT. Reason's why:
(in no particular order)
1. He has to be undoubtedly the most known DJ in the World.
2. He brings in about 50 grand USD a gig, usually 2-3 hours.
3. He plays out at least 100 gigs a year, prolly more, just guessing.
4. He does do Movie Soundtracks, ie: Swordfish, Planet of the Apes.
5. He does commercial soundtracks.
6. He runs his own Record label.
7. He's sold millions of mix comilations, and his Perfecto Presents Anther World was the highest grossing Dance compilation ever back in 2000.
8. He produces and releases his own music.
9. He's also under Madonna's label "Maverick" which he makes even more money.
...there are more, but I can't think of any ATM.
BT does not even compare to Oakey's grossing. Sure he produces N'Sync and Britney tracks, but thats only a small piece of the pie. Oakey by far, by faaaaaaaar, is more rich than BT. Just my opinion.
peace.

Thanks for your thoughts but you are wrong on many points, I'm not saying Oakenfold makes less then BT I'm just adding my thoughts. First thing is he does not make $50,000.00 a show, he makes more in the range 8,000 - 12,000 not including New Years eve where he could gross that kinda of money on one show. Second, he does more scores for movies then Oakenfold. If you listen to all the really big electronic music producers they all want to do scores for movies not only because it challenges their music making ability but also it pays BIG.
