i remember in 1995 (in portugal) every kid wants to have a turntable and buy vinyls, sometimes just to have the same tracks the great dj´s play on the partys

now its all diferent , there are millions of p2p programs and warez techno foruns... in seconds they have acess to the mp3 and sometimes the vinyl its not on sale yet

if they want to be djs they download in seconds the last version of tracktor

nobody is selling nothing like in the other times

portugal is a country that consumes many tecnology , whe are the first country to receave (test) and sell new celular phones of famous companys like "Sony Ericsson" and other types of new internet technologies (when i say "first" i mean the big companys release first the stuff here to be tested they say whe are very exacting and if they sell in portugal can sell everywhere)

the slowest adsl here is 4 mb and the standart adsl is 12 mb per second ( 1 second or 2 to download a track in mp3 )

all the people in these days have a fast pc and a fast adsl (even 9 years old kids)

they leave the pc´s downloading all night and day , djsets ,vinyls , cd albums


with all this its very hard to sell the same... some people never enter in a shop in they lives


ps: sorry my bad english
