my friend likes the visual things, he wants to learn DVDJ's...I don't care for it. Maybe at a rave where everyone's tripped up and its just too cool of an experience, but I'm passionate for music.

i don't believe there is anything new to learn... theres just a new video when you move the faders... right?

I think there's more to it than just moving a fader. Depending on the mixer, the video fader is separate than the audio fader, so you can be playing the video from one DVDJ while playing the audio from another.
I remember seeing DJ Roonie G in vegas last year spinning on DVDJ's. He was mostly doing music videos but it was pretty trippy seeing him scratch to videos. The video moves forwards and backwards just like scratching to vinyl.

yeah, i saw this being demo'ed at the DV EXPO in LA back in 2003.
Visuals add so much to a show. I love lights and lasers and always have, but I tell ya, visuals add a thoughtfulness to the music... more of an interpretive aesthetic.
