God this has been a right old sh!t fight.

To the original poster get 1200's you wont regret it. IF you dont like them they will retain there resale value, rather like Vinyl :lol: ;)

fck them in the a*!
I like it when I get all giggly when receiving my discogs crate with good ol' records :) Maybe I'll take a peak towards a Serato in the future just to play out some crazy youtube sh!t and stuff unavailable on vinyl but it will be just for this. If it's available on vinyl (and I can afford it, not some Villalobos MDMA or something lol) then I'll buy it on vinyl. I've had moments at parties I've been like ooh sht this sht hot rare track!!! I have it! He has it too, cool! Must've schemed hard to get it on vinyl... Just to find out later the feller played an mp3. Weak, if you ask me. Feels like cheating, honestly. Or maybe I'm stupid and all this music/dj stuff is meant to feel as disposable as mp3-s...
Rant over.

And happy dj-ing to the OP (who apparently got his mk2-s) :)

This.

I pick up the odd mp3 if it isn't released on vinyl but rarely end up playing it, I just don't feel like this format adds anything to my collection.
