They dropped flash, added waveforms and stuff, now they look like the competition (if any).

No :), that's how it [I]will[/I] look, [URL]http://beta.beatport.com/beta[/URL].

but they're going to keep both sites

[I]Like it Flashy? Don't worry, the old (Flash) site isn't going anywhere. You can access your profile and purchase tracks on both sites indefinitely.[/I]

Re: The new Beatport

Good. Im not a dj so I rarely visted their site but my experiences found it to be slow and hard to navigate

Re: The new Beatport

^^^ Ditto ! Although I do buy a bit because I like to have the good stuff in the best quality. :D

Re: The new Beatport

Buggy, slow, disorganized and many times excessively costly.

I only buy from Beatport when I absolutely have no other choice. Boomkat is my no. 1 and Juno comes afterwards.

new layout looks quite good, but the old one was much more userfriendly imo

Re: The new Beatport

I don't use Beatport much anymore. For ages i found Juno hard to get around (because i used beatport so much for so long i think) but over time i've come to feel more at home at Juno.

Will give the new bp a try, will all my preferences and favourites transfer to the new interface yeah? Silly question maybe would be a pisser if they didn't.

One annoyance i have with Beatport is that it logs me out while i'm using it quite often. Is it possible to alter that? I have looked but not found where. Usually when i log back in things are as they were but there have been odd times where i've logged back in and my playlist has vanished - that drives me fucking mad.

Juno encourages me to buy full releases and compilations more i'd say, offering discount for buying a full release on much more. Beatport tends to say

buy track 1 for £1.99

or buy the whole 4 tracks on the e.p. for ........er...... £7.96 :what

Re: The new Beatport

The Flash Beatport used to do that, but it changed a while ago when they introduced the new login system. Now I stay logged for days. The Beta Beatport instead requires user and pass even if I get distracted for a second, that's really annoying. I love Juno and buy from them too.

Re: The new Beatport

I already gave away mine, see previous posts. But it's a matter of days.

Pedobear will be available soon on Toolroom Records.
