Definately stick with vinyl,you won't get far with cd decks.
1.Most dance tunes aren't released on cd.
2.Cds are gay.
Im just a bassline addict
Im just a hardcore addict
Im just a dancefloor manic
Why o why cant you just accept it.

When hardcore records will be released as CD singles, then you should go for CD's...

I like cd dex more myself, mostly because of cost and reliability issues.
1)On cd dex there are no needles that wear out and need to be replaced with time
2)Cds don't degrade as quickly as vinyl does, so each time u play it the sound is still perfect. People that say vinyl has a superior sound than cd...that’s a complete crock otherwise why the hell would people have Dolby digital setups etc. Digitally stored music is perfect, essentially. After playing a record ten times you already will begin to hear lil pops etc when playing your vinyl.
3)If you produce your own material and want to see how it fares on the dance floor you can easily burn a copy to cd and take it to one of your gigs. A CD costs less than a dollar. While with vinyl you have to get dub plates made etc which is expensive and time consuming.
But hey if you have a lot of money to throw around go for the vinyl turntables. I know are a lot of people that have both cd and vinyl dex…I wish I had that kind of money to spend on cool toys :(

i think one of the main things holding cd's back, is that once cd singles are produced for spinning purposes, they will get mp3'd straight away and the dj masses will be buying considerably less music, cuz they'll just toss it on cd, and no one will know

i don't really prefer one over the other. unless you have the cdj800 or 1000 then cd's are the exact same as vinyl as far as handling goes. one advantage of cd's... NO SKIPPING! on friday night i played a party that had stanton skipmaster needles and they just weren't havinit (all the other dj's were having major skip problems) so i just played a whole set on cd.

i think i will keep my vinyl turntables and i will keep cd decks as well and use both.i will probaly end up using cd decks more because there are DJ shops with have specail cd's for DJ's to use and have gud tunes on.1 CD cost £3 from this shop as a vinyl cost alot more.

Go with whatever your happiest with
Me personally I use vinyl decks and atm I prefer vinyl, but so many promos are pushed out on CD these days, so I think CD mixing is a very good thing to be able to do. Its also good for trying out your own tunes/remixes on . I can't really afford to invest in a CD deck right now, and so just hook up my laptop and use that as a makeshift CD deck, but once my DJing skills improve I'll definitely be investing in one to COMPLIMENT my turntables..... no way would I lose the turntables though.

I'm looking into CD decks at the mo since with recent hardcore albums like the 6 CD 'Ultimate Hardcore Album' most of the CDs are un-mixed and most of the songs are really hard to find on vinyl now. Plus it's only about £10!
