i think people are also neglecting the massive increase of p2p and file-sharing. people are now listening to ASOT all the time. he plays his best tunes on ASOT - he cant play shit tunes coz no one would listen, and when it comes to doing a set he cant play shit tunes so he plays the same tunes that he plays on ASOT.
now because everyone has heard those tunes 1000x times it gets boring - i remember the first time i heard firewall - sincere was at the PvD 6hr at crasher last may and i thought it was one of the best tunes of the night, now i think its cheesy and poorly produced.
everyone knows what everyone else if playing so of course its going to be impossible to be original. though i do agree there is a distinct lack of effort that seems to be made in sets these days.
armin is also the only DJ who i find it easy to ID tracks. Last time I saw him in liverpool i IDd half his tracks, and im shit at id-ing...
