I can't help it if you have a comprehension problem, it is in English. It did not take me a week to write it.

I agree. The whole reason of me making this post was just to hear other people's views on the direction of VDJ. I've been using it for quite a few years now and I've always been more than satisfied with what it does. I understand that the profile of VDJ doesn't matter to the people who we are playing music to, (at the end of the day as long as they're dancing they're happy), but I would like to see VDJ get as much recognition as the other softwares out there, and for this I do believe some sort of deal would have to be done with some of the major hardware manafacturers.

From who though? Other DJs. This is what AMAHM is saying (I think!). Who gives a flying £$%^& what other DJs think?
Somewhere on this forum a while ago, dj-in-norway posted some info on the number of new users joining the forum every day. It's a huge number. How much more recognition does VDJ need?

Why is this so hard to understand? Is this an age thing, geographic, cultural, What? If a DJ says something about the clothes you wear, the speakers you use, the car you drive, the case you carry your controller in, are you standing around crying, trying to defend your choices, asking them to go outside?
I will ask it again. How has this article affected your life in any way? Tell me so I can understand.

I never mentioned anything about what other dj's think so I don't know where that came from. The recognition I'm talking about is from the hardware manufacturers. When was the last time VDJ was included with a controller? When was the last time you saw VDJ branded on any hardware? The major dj softwares out there have strong ties with hardware and I am saying that I sincerely hope the same will happen with VDJ.

I did almost add that to my post as I thought it might be your reason, if not the DJs.
My answer - why do you think it's necessary when almost every controller that comes onto the market is supported by VDJ? Even the "locked" ones.
It doesn't need to be bundled. It doesn't need to have a logo on the controller. If the controller works with VDJ, job done.
IMO if someone is only interested in DJ software because it came bundled with a controller or there's a logo of it somewhere, then they need to get their act together!

VDJ comes with the Pioneer DDJ SZ!!
What more do you want?? It's a top of line controller!
Obviously VDJ has spoken with a Top of line company, after all doesn't everyone say Pioneer is the industry standard??

How soon we forget. At one time, every controller from every manufacture (OK almost every), came with VDJ. Maybe the owner has different plans, maybe he is working with them. The point I'm trying to make is, what difference does it make to me?
How does this article negatively affect any of you, just tell me that?

This thread reminds me of a time I left a club carrying a Pioneer case and a drunk guy outside said "Pioneers shit" and I just smiled and continued, it wasn't a personal remark.

To be fair people are talking street cred, whether they're looking out for the software or their own image or both, who knows.
From my own experience most of it is about the design of the skin, when I use a cleaner more 'pro' skin people don't hate.

Probably all the major brands are owned by the same people / financial groups.
They then just pretend to compete, but they are the same animal.
Atomix is not theirs, and thus must be destroyed so as to achieve full market dominance.
This could be a byproduct of the crooked banking system.
It's got their fingerprints on the evidence.
Hm..maybe I'm wrong.

Looks like VirtualDJ is very popular in Mozambique. LOL

I suspect VDJ8.2 is very big in China.
Also I think it's the most used DJ software in the UK..no matter what anybody says!

Most used isn't an achievement when you consider whose using it and how many of them actually invest in the product.
The most used product isn't usually the best product, there's nothing aspirational about the most used car or most consumed burger, people aspire towards the high end, and in the realm of DJ software a minimum wage kid can afford a half decent controller with more aspirational software.

Hmmmmmmm, I think I want to sell 10 hamburgers, at $10.00 a piece rather than sell a gazillion at $5.00 a piece. Guess which company I'm investing in? The "best" is and always will be subjective. What's the best DJ software, best controller, best minivan (I'm sorry, I had to put that in there, and I'm laughing my ass off)? I would think any businessman would love to sell more of his product, than his competitor and not really care who's using it. That's just me.

From the Tech Tools article, "Virtual DJ has an unfair advantage in the Google Trends game because many people actually search for a virtual DJ without even knowing about the software by that name." Get the puck outta here. How did he come to that conclusion? How many of those people did they contact to see if they made a mistake? Where is that graph? So, what the puck were they searching for?

Load of bollocks. Why would anyone search for VirtualDJ if it wasn't the software they were looking for.
