It would be nice if you could export your shopping cart (or downloaded) list to an xml or txt file.
Then you wouldn't have to write down track info for mixes. You could just copy and paste a .txt file

Keepin' the beats deep in the groove bunker

Post that request on their forum. Anyway, the email response usually has enough text info for possible remix info. ---Kent

It would be good if you could save your crates in multiple folders and only have to purchase one

bpm I don't care about, but would be very nice if they included the label/cover art as some of the other stores does!

unless you mix your tracks in the same order as you buy them on beatport I don't see the point really...
Besides, most software like traktor etc offer the possibility to export the tracks you have played. But I suppose you play your mp3's on a cdj or something like that, which I agree- is a lot of work.
I used to make playlists afterwards in iTunes and export that playlist, still some extra work but at least you saved time from writing it down.

I'd just like Beatport to ask less money for these exclusives. Or let us europeans pay in dollar, I don't get why we have to pay 40% more then the USA guys for the same music. And I believe the UK is even more expensive, pretty rip-off kinda deal if you ask me...

Where are you based?! The euro is doing excellently against the American Dollar, I mean beatport tracks can be pricey as far as internet dealers go but at the moment we're getting tracks really cheap

I reckon beatport needs a 'wishlist' it would solve the problem of saving tracks you have to buy but not nessacarily buying them straight away
