Title: Request to establish a list of reconized legal music sources for use by DJ
Post by: DJ KBE on September 01, 2008, 07:02:44 PM

Hi Folks!

I'am new to this site. I may have missed pervious forum discussions and I will continue to search all the information here but I think it would really be helpful if there was an area on the site that provided links to music sources that are accessible to DJs without presenting a copyright issue. It's a rather lengthy process to purchase, and rip CDs although I still utilize this method. However, it is much easier to download music but not being a lawyer I think it is quite a challenge to read through legal disclaimers on each site.

It would be really helpful to know I could go to a list with websites reflected on sich a list that have been checked out and are legal for use to purchase music for use by DJs. I apologize if I have overlooked information that may already be posted here.

Looking forward to receiving information.

Thanks.

yes ;) none of the above have DRM, except iTunes... (but not all tracks do in itunes)

So all above will work fine in Virtual DJ (with exception of some iTunes tracks)

I use mix.dj
This site is all 1 hour mixes but it lets you buy each track being mixed. One of the more interesting ways of buying music I find ;D

Hi Fellow DJs!

I am so happy to see my original post from a year ago is still going strong!

Now I would like to add another request to this post. Is there any information out there on where to find instrumental digital (mp3, wav, whatever) tracks?

Sure would appreciate whatever you all could share.

Thanks.
