Mixing on laptops DOES make you a DJ. What the hell does it matter what medium the DJ uses as long as he does it well?

I agree with the ipod thing, it does look ridiculous. BUT ableton on the other hand im all for and for the love of god would all the technophobes just stfu about it. If u feel vinyls the only way to go then fine....stop creating useless fucking threads about it and play vinyl and leave the rest of the people to use wotever they want to.

I think you're a bit too obsessed with yourself. Pull your head out of your ass and realize that the DJ's job is to deliver the music and get the crowd going - by whatever means make for the best experience. Everybody go ahead and choose the medium you do it better with.

If there's a shitty vinyl DJ and a masterful laptop DJ playing, who do you go dance to?

The ipod mixer is bollocks:

"you can’t do pitch control to fine-tune beat matching, and you can’t listen to your cued channel in one ear while the other channel plays — another knock against keeping a single groove moving along."

lol

My take on... (various mixes planned, updated when I can be arsed)

Do you really expect people to continue to mix with a medium that was invented in the fucking 1910's? Not gonna happen. Just accept the fact that things evolve and either way it sounds good in the end. Ableton mashups own all your asses.

Now I remember live-sets by Kyau vs. Albert where the two guys used vinyls in addition to music stored in their synthesizers they used to play on.

I think, that is the future. So in principle you will have both in the future - stored digital music mixed together with vinyls.

For white labels it is not an option to produce CDs, they will stick to vinyls (cheap) and to music productions that can be stored digitally (even cheaper). Finally you just need suitable mixers...
