Favorite Download store?

Hey guys,

I was just curious to see where everyone is buying their tracks from these days and why you prefer certain sites over others!

Thanks in advance.

I always liked dance records the best when it came to organizing tracks by style. The more narrow you can go the better and easyer I find shopping.

Fair enough! Can't argue with that. They are the giant of our industry.

That being said, we have been adding 50 labels per week (Over 5000 songs per week) so we are going to catch up eventually. :D

How do our sites compare in other aspects than catalouge size?

I'm guessing your screen resolution is turned way up, and the right side pane is for your last previewed samples

Most of my shopping consists of traxsource and beatport.
My only complaint with traxsource: the price and everyone has the same promos


Get those new hotties uploaded Seany!

yeah, it's cause your res is so high. the frame at the right is where the player appears when you demo a track.

I really like your site. Although I can't find my credit card so I have to keep on using the sites I currently support. Soon though.

I do use Beatport. I have tracked so many classic tracks from that site as well as some great rare gems. I like it b/c of the great selection. I also like the idea of charts. Its really cool to see that alot of the top djs/producers play some of the same tunes as me. I start to like one producer and low and behold I get a taste of what kind of tunes he plays. Usually the music he plays is alot like the music he produces which gives me countless links to new music that all sounds alike.

some other notable sites are bleep.com and addictech.

this whole mp3 digging thing is not nearly as much of a challange as record shopping was.

PlayItTonight is nice because it has PayPal and everything else I need.
Beatport due to the volume of tracks.
