i agree with you (with the proviso that the digital media ogg/mp3/whatever is of sufficient bandwidth/quality).... i think once most dj/producers realise the possibilities for doing their own edits/mixes of their fave tracks etc with things like FS (and yeah the denon with the spinning disk) then things will really change.
