no one in history has won 3 times a year.. Armin has his ASOT show.. and plays loads of gigs.. I just feel he is gonna be #1 this year.. (personally I dont give a damn who enters #1)
I thought Tiesto was the first DJ to win the poll 2 years running?
And he was also the first non-British DJ to win the poll, so Danny Tenaglia couldn't have won it, right?

ya know...saying that tiesto won't win because there has never been a three time winner is pretty stupid given how short the history of the poll has been.

The contest was not held in 1994 or 1996. I don't know who the winner of the original one in 1993 was, but it was just a list compiled by the magazine editors that year to celebrate the 50th issue.
correct reply at last! It only became a poll for Cox.
This is why even as a religiously loyal TIesto fan i voted Armin this year... traditionally NO ONE not even Gods like Cox and Oakey can win this one thrice. Although an achievement, Tiesto doesn't deserve to eclipse there's - just to level is ok.

PvD seriously deserves it though.

Not everybody that has ever heard about Tiësto knows that he was the first non english DJ ever to win the DJmag Top 100 DJs vote, but the more people know that he was the first DJ ever to do this 'trick' another time again when he was chosen best DJ in the world at the end of October last year in London for the second time in a row
someone is wrong here, i think

so why is it so special that a none UK dj wins the dj mag?
personally i find it crap, i prefer the more underground and upcoming DJs, the famous ones keep playing the tunes over and over again, and coming up with shit remixes like taures and Adigio for strings etc.
Stuff like DJ mag ruins music imo. look at mtv awards, people don't give a shit about how music must sound, just money and the award.
