I think it'll only be forever harder moving forward for the big DJs to use vinyl (as their main medium anyways) given how quickly new music comes out, how it's given to the DJs, etc. I really wonder %-wise how many of the DJs get their music in vinyl form now-a-days. Plus vinyl is expensive, bulky, and difficult to travel with.

A lot of them use laptops but still keep the operation of a turntable via control vinyls. Seems to be a happy medium most have found.

a whole vinyl release is not that much more expensive than a full ep on beatport.

they are laughing all the way to the bank.

And how many DJs use a whole vinyl release?

I was referring to the bigger jocks that get things upfront, and for free.

I'm by no means an expert on the DJ scene, but for the past 3 years at least all the big jocks I've seen out have all been using CDDJs or laptop. I've yet to see anyone use Serato out. Not saying it doesn't happen... I'm sure tons of DJs use it... Just saying. Actually I take that back... 4ish years ago I remember seeing PVD use control vinyl (or was it CDs... can't remember).

Any particular reason why these setups are being preferred by techno DJ's specifically?

It is all about having the aesthetic of wax with the convenience of digital files.

my guess is exclusive vinyl content mixed with the extra things you can pull off with the software.

in the techno world there are still tons of great releases seeing a vinyl only release.
