    Yes, we're talking genres not finding artists.

    Perhaps but I never search by Genres?

    If I want any song...I'll type in the artist.

    I don't understand why you guys are searching by genres? What's wrong with typing "perfect 10" in the search bar?

    Yeah those nights when the punters are on the ball, up for a good time, and every request they give you imediately brings two more to your mind are wonderful.
    Sadly they're also sporadic. Regularly you're searching for inspiration, with no idea what to play next, very often.

    Hmmmmm....certainly with the tone of Peter's post - yes, but I do find it hard to believe that everyone wouldn't like a little bit of inspiration every now and again.

    Only one problem with that exceedingly cunning plan, young Charlie.
    1)I use itunes as a method of absolutely totally and utterly the last resort.At present, I've bought 3 tracks from them, I believe.
    2) Numark Cue? Is that like a posh
    D2?

    Yes. You've got to know that you wanted them. Finding them's the laughably easy bit. It's knowing what to look for that's the problem.

    Angela, you're worrying me again. Possibilities.
    1) You missed something out of your post, which is why I'm baffled.
    2) You're taking the mickey, and I'm still baffled, which is worse.
    3) I have a sneaking suspicion, that you're explaining what I meant to Tony and Charlie, which is good. Carry on that person. Excellent work.
