cdj's

so, ive realised that my want to dj has gone from vague to quite intense over the last few years. whats the deal with cdjs? as much as id like to dj vinyl and have a beautiful collection, i simply cant afford to keep up a record collection.

i hear that pioneers are the best out there in the cdj world, but it is it almost essential to get the pioneers?

i have upto about 1000 to spend on the whole lot, if i could get a setup good enough to learn on and not have to replace almost immediately due to obsoleteness for cheaper than that would be preferable.

whats the deal with the midi controller traktor/serato options too? any thoughts? cheers.

yeah that would be lovely but they are like 800 quid each ludd, thats why i have made this thread.

i was basicaly wondering if the 200-400/s are worth getting?

maybe just get 1 and change your discs really really fast between songs until you can afford another one
