cant you already get it for Mac? I have a copy although I never use it.

I prefer Djay although I never use that either. :D I would do if I did not have Serato.

Ah OK. Thats good then :)

I suppose they are giving it out willy nilly with hardware and its pirated all over the place the license is not worth anything anymore anyway. every cowboy DJ I have seen in a few different areas of the world has been using it.

I have started to use the free version of VDJ and it does all that I could really want with my set up.
I assume that if and when I do any proper mobile gigs that I would have to have the professional version to make myself legal. What is the right thing to do hear, as all I want is to use the free version that I have and would prefer to pay any performance fees for just that.:confused:

You can use the free 'Home' version for personal use only! If you are performing at a payed or public gig then you have to have a copy of either "Basic" or "Professional". Basic is about £80, and professional £200.

I've given the free VDJ a go - didn't suit me - prefer DJay - but then most people prefer what they are familiar with.

Well, you're breaching the licensing terms if you're using the free version for anything over than home use, so its probably fine for a house party at your home.

I assume you pay for your music, and also charge for your gigs - so get the legal version? Its all tax deductible, so £200 or less off your tax bill.

If you want some totally FREE DJ software, then check out "MIXXX";

I've got this running with my VMS4, but not using the soundcard part. Its not a spot on VDJ/Other, but still very usable.

Thanks for the replies. I would prefer to pay £80.00 and get the basic virtual dj package so that I comply when and if I ever perform away from home.
I will have a look at the other options but really like the way virtual dj works with my set up.
