so you're arguing that because some djs use polling as marketing tool to amplify their visibility and booking fees, the ranking system is somehow meaningful to their ability relative to others? ok... |

I am not argueing that a high ranking on a poll with give rise to better quality music or DJ performances, i am just saying that the polls obviously DO mean jack , otherwise the top few hundred djs and their managers would not be pushing for votes every year. |

it means money within the business, but to any casual observer with a head on their shoulders... ie: all of us, it means nothing. the fact that he's slipping in a poll doesn't mean he's slipping in his ability. for all anyone knows he could be getting better and playing more like, say phil k, who ranks like 200th or some , but is technically flawless. |

| Theres a lot of DJs who get by just fine without ever begging for a single vote or even reminding people about it. |
