like playing backwards the whole tune? scratching? i haven't seen any cd
player that could do some REAL scratching.. and the method of marking
the cue point in cd's is horrible. i can place the needle where i want
with 12". and with 12" you can see what's happening next in song, as
well easily see how much there's song left without panicking and
counting the seconds.. and 12" is visually more interesting. there's
different colors, records that play from in to out.. nah. cd and mp3
does not match with dj.
