it's good for beatport, and the sort of person who likes to take all their musical cues from other people.

imho it's pretty meh too. i tend to think tho that sometimes it is enough to enjoy something for what it is - to know that i like what i am listening too without having to worry about what it's called and where i can buy it. maybe i will find out the next day, maybe months later i will hear the track again, find the name, and it will remind me of how much i enjoyed it first time around, or maybe i'll never hear it again, and all i'll have is a memory. and sometimes that's better than rinsing the shit out of an amazing track til it reaches the point where it no longer has any significance to me.

So you think it's a bad thing if a tune is so good that it makes you want to play it over and over nonstop.. Would a better soloution be to buy mediocre tunes that you only really like hearing once?

I can't really see a problem with knowing a tune that you like straight away..

I can think of plenty I have heard over the years to this day I still don't know the titles or artists but would jump at them in a second if I did.

It's a bit of a stretch to say you take all your cues from other people because you pick a track out of their set..

Are you so original that you have never ever played a track you heard someone else play?
