even if you don't 'dj' in the go out and do it places sense, there's
every reason to not only have a tuntable at home, but to have 2 (or
3) tables, a mixer, etc at home. first of all, all the good techno
is only on vinyl and that's just the way it is right now, plus
learning to mix (even a little) gives the whole thing a different
perspective. lots of tracks sound better when they are played with
other tracks, and getting familiar with the music happens a lot more
quickly when you are actually engaged in 'doing' something with it.
ok, yes, listening to it is doing something with it.. let's avoid
that thread. there's a lot of damn fun to be had by djing at home,
for yourself, is my point.

I don't DJ. For the longest time I bought vinyl (based on reviews on the 313
list) in the hopes that I would one day get a turntable. Nearly a decade
later and I finally bought one. What a revelation! There are so many things
I have missed. 80% is a conservative estimate. I'd say vinyl all the way.

Many who know me, are still baffled as to why I dont have
a darn T-Table. Some have told me that 80% of the best
techno and house/tech-house comes out on vinyl only. Just as
others are bewildered by me not having a t-table, so too am I
with EVERYONE having one....thus my question is this...
How many people, in anyones estimation, spin for a club, or
DJ at private gigs, etc. As oppossed to those who just buy
vinyl just to listen to the "80%-good stuff" on vinyl?
