I have a ton of cd’s that have been ripped into .mp3 form that i use when i DJ, but every once and awhile somebody wants something i don’t have. This normally would be a problem but i have a laptop with wireless internet, so i can download the song. Now how can i legally use that music without actually buying it. There has got to be some business loop hole around this, right? Any serious answers would be appreciated.

I know there are millions of wannabe’s out there but why do most of the clubs I go to have sub-standard DJ’s playing who constantly make mistakes. I have handed out 100’s of seamless demos with no results. I also cover 5 different styles of music so I must have something they like????

stardigital asked:


Some DJ sites say the margin on equipment is in the region of just 10% and selling new gear is difficult. Some shop owners I know are very wealthy while others aren’t. I can’t find accurate information on the net. Anyone know how many Pioneer CDJ1000s, Numark CDXs, Technics 1210s are sold worldwide? What kind of margin is on them?
