also, if i put alot of my set on cd i'd constantly worry about whether or not the club had cd decks. i know all it would take would be a mention of it by chrissi when we do a dj booking but what about those randon free parties where all you have is a set of 1210's. you'd be screwed!

tbh i do so love vinyl, but that's one probably because i've spent the last god knows how many yrs mixing with vinyl. perhaps if i made the effort and gave cd's a real go it would make my life much easier.
When watching M-Zone's set early this year at the Grove, about 75% of his set was on cd man.
