as long as there are humans mixing, there will be irrational choices of medium.
ie i will always prefer vinyl over CD/MP3 purely because of the buzz i get then i buy new vinyl. the feeling i get when i put the needle on the track. etc
doesnt make vinyl any better or worse to DJ with. its all down to preference.
if you look at how clubs still use 1210s as standard yet other manufactures have gained much ground of late. the same will eb said for vinyl vs x. once clubs are set in their ways, its a job to change them
