keeping libraries in sync?

So I'm just switching (at least for some venues) to using a laptop to DJ. I haven't tried any special software yet. I've been using itunes to cue/search then dragging and dropping to winamp to play. The problem I'm having is that for storage/historical reasons my music collection actually lives on m...

My 1300+ cds are all on shelves.. Unfortunatley now they're full and there's not really any room in my apartment for more shelves, so I either need to start weeding or come up with a different solution.

... it was funny at the beginning of the night because a bunch of DJs and instructors got in early and front-loaded the juke box with some really good music. Guilty. We deployed a small 'taskforce' with about $20 in quarters. It worked well, by in large. I'm glad someone did. I had no cash on me.

Like everyone else said... The stuff I ordered from them arrived in great condition, but sometimes took several weeks to show up.

the first batch of CDs that came out had cleaning directions -- use a damp lintless cloth (dunno what it means for a cloth to have no lint... i usually just use my t-shirt) and wipe in straight lines from inside to outside, dry it in the same way. if you still can't rip, try a different program lik...

I've got a CD that even EAC couldn't help with. It plays fine in my stereo, but when I try to play it on the computer it gets 1:20 into the first track and then I get no sound (either playing it as a CD in the computer or having EAC rip to .WAV and then trying to play those). Does anyone else have J...

I listened to their CD release concert on the radio last night. It didn't really sound like any of the new CD was swing, but I haven't picked it up yet.

I feel that tempos from DJs should more or less form a bell curve with the middle majority being medium tempos with few slow on one end of the spectrum and a few fast on the other end of the spectrum. This event I felt that the slow was in the middle majority and fast and medium were at the ends of...

I am game to meet all fellow DJs on Sunday around noon for some CD shopping and perhaps lunch. We shall meet at Jazz Record Center as suggested by Shorty Dave. Let's start a roll call. Who is in? Serg I'm still on the fence for the weekend, but if I make it out there I'll definitely plan on Sunday ...

I first heard it played at the Denver exchange by Deb Cotherman and it rocked the house. I've been playing it ever since.

Lyle Lovett song?

Bill played a Lyle Lovett song at the end of his set at SONH. I forgot to write down the title though.. Anyone have any idea what it was?

I had a horrid nightmare about djing a few months back. Every time I stepped away from the equipment, it moved and got further and further from the dancefloor so by the end of the dream I was in a completely different room and couldn't see the floor at all.
