People are used to see DJs spinning vinyl. And playing dub�s
and promos is supposed to be a "cool" thing for lots of
DJs and punters aswell.

When I go clubbing I want so hear new stuff or just a good mix.
It doesn�t matter for me if this guy spins dubs, normal vinyl releases,
CDs or pancakes.  ; ) But besides that good mix (what would be enought
to satify me as a producer) a DJ often has to deliver a "show".

Spinning lots of dubs can be  part of the show punters expect to see,
but at the end oth the day a dubplate is just a "storage-device" for
music like any other media.

No matter what the media is it should be done live.
I agree there has to be (some) performance! Otherwise it would be enought for a DJ to 
send over the newest mix-CDR and get the money without even showing up.
