I buy 80% of my tracks off of Beatport and only a few times have I encountered problems, with either too long of tracks (tracks that have a big pause either in the beginning or at the end of the track), which you can edit but still a bit of a pain. Also a few mislabeled files, one release I bought but didn't come until months later, and a few poorly encoded tracks. But I keep coming back to Beatport because they are cheaper then the other digital download sites and they have a good selection and WAVs (though I still download mostly MP3s, don't hear a huge difference). I actually prefer and have had less problems with AudioJelly (and the encoding of MP3s tends to be better) but since they are located in the UK, it costs more, but they do have a tendency to get releases in earlier and feature more promos and they have a back-catalogue from Lost Language...

well I guess Ive been lucky with beatport. I think Ive ordered something like 250 tracks and Ive never had any problem with any of them.

Never had a problem with them, havent had a problem with resonant vibes either.

Theres just one thing I can't stand about it, you like, can't go back... If you click something, don't like it and you wanna go back a page, you click the little back button on the site and it takes you back to the start!



But other then that I like beatport... I just started to get into digital downloads... I have like 11 songs from them now, but this mistake had to happen...

Their website fucks up for me far too often.

Sometimes it won't let me log in, sometimes it will randomly log me out when I'm navigating around.

All in all it's just too much flashy bullshit and not enough functionality... IMO, there are much better routes they could have taken that would have been much more functional. Maybe they wouldn't look as nice, but then again, I don't even think their site looks that nice...

+1

i fucking hate flash sites and beatport is probably one of the worst i've seen so far.


and for those wondering what tracks i had troubles with:
peter martin pres. anthanasia - perfect wave (original mix) has a skip at about 8:51
and
airwave - save me (original mix) is actually the dyyni remix. they don't even have the full lenght original mix there at all, only an edit from the album.
