In my 10 years of DJing I’ve never:
1. Used CDJs
2. DJed off of a flash drive. Computer only.

I can’t be the only one right?

imo the main benefit of CDJs is the portability of your sets via USB

other than that, a controller / laptop can move the crowd just the same. most sets just come down to loops, tempo shift, beat jumping, and cue points

lmk if this is blasphemous
