If everyone has equal access to the same tracks, I think your going to
see alot of DJ's all playing the same tracks, none of which having >"that
record" to drop that no-one else plays....
***i disagree. every dj seems to have their own tastes and styles. i would
think you'll hear more creative dj sets that take you on a journey through
their music tastes of past and present. it'll be a great opportunity for
djs/producers to make their own remixes of tracks they like to add to their
set too. damn...giving away ideas (illegal ideas) ;)

Thanks, All, for the info. I dont know if I can fathom the idea of
replacing my
records with a laptop computer, but it would be great to have so that you
could
drop .wav files of your own track into your own set without the costs of
vinyl-pressing. It would also be great to get ahold of tracks that are
long
out-of-print, however i'm afraid this may lead to a homogenization of the
music
scene... If everyone has equal access to the same tracks, I think your
going to
see alot of DJ's all playing the same tracks, none of which having "that
record"
to drop that no-one else plays....
As far as the producers not getting paid, well, I know when I truly like an
artist or band that I have downloaded off of napster, I do in fact purchase
the
CD. In response to an earlier comment in this thread, There was in fact
a
reduction in shipping costs when CD's were first released, but the problem
is
thast this was never passed on to the consumer, it was rather absorbed by
the
companys themselves... Hopefully a system can be developed to get payments
to
artists who are distributed digitally, but I believe the big record
companys
will fight this tooth and nail..
