M8, automatic bpm matching is dreadfull... I tell ya the more yer ear evolve the more u aprecciate how beatmatching isn't a science but more of an art. Being able 2 do little nuddges with out it being perceivable is the name of the game, something that a pc won't b able 2 so easily!
U do have a point about use records when u can do with out.. but the thing is most of the djing survives on the "interface" bit... Traktor is quite hopeless when it comes 2 this... U can only really get 2 use propperly when they do an interface with the exact shape of 2 decks and a mixer...

that's almost what u get with FS... that's why u need 2 records.. and I mean it's just 2 records, but the best control know so far 4 the djing pourposes!!
