I have a 120 Gig hard drive filled with 65 Gigs of music and you can rest assured that I paid for every song. I guess you could call me an MP3 junkie, anyway, because I continue to expand my library of music, I felt that I needed a large hard drive. I also have a 60Gig hard drive that I have backed up my "most requested songs" to. Hard drive size is left up to the opinion of the individual user and that will never change.

I have had no bad responses here in this area as far as computer DJ'ing. Most of my clients are amazed with the technology and appreciate that I use CD's as my back up. I also explain to them that if in fact the hard drive or computer fails that there will be only about 2 seconds of silence before I switch to my CD players.

It is my opinion, that clients that really object to the use of computers or any equipment I use, are truely people that I will probably will never satisfy.

Right now, I don't know of any software or any type of equipment that will play without a monitor. As the Doc said, the Denon DNC615, DN-T645 and the Pioneer DMP-555 will play MP3's but they are CD type players.

Enjoy!
