Well...

A real DJ is the one that can handle vinyl turntables

Anyway, I've voted for Digital, because now I think mostly productions are released only by this way.
And also, because the Digital will never destroy with the time

But also if I sustain this, I think a Vinyl record have more value than a Digital record, because originally all the records was released by this way.

I disagree. A real Dj (no matter what format the dj use) is a DJ that understand the art of communicating with the people on the floor making their night unforgettable while allowing them to go on a journey. Very few know how to master this art which is based on a lot of DJ experience and care for the people on the floor versus ego tripping "Look at me I have the unreleased killer tracks".

P.S! There's still a lot of Dj's playing Vinyl. But at the end of the day the format does not matter one bit.

Of course Kris, I haven't thinked about this...
But these days, especially in Italy i think, there are really much "fake" DJs (those ones that mixes with Virtual DJ just playing the "automix" button, or in worst cases plays pre-mixed sets and then simulate their DJ action).
It's for that I've said that a DJ can be called "real" when he plays a turntable, digital or analogic.
Then I know you can use also PC for blend other sounds on that.

Digital because it is so inexpensive.

I use a digital vinyl setup (MixVibes) and therefore im obviously going to be bias towards vinyl, i have nothing against digital, and will eventually upgrade as thats the way technology is going. For now though i think digital vinyl is a good compromise

Vinyl really forces you to feel the music and makes you understand the mechanics behind the mix before going and getting all fancy and digital with looping etc. You can have 10,000 effects and samples or digital loop banks, but if your cant mix, your going to sound poo

just my 2p

digital.... taking into account vynils superior sound, the cons against vynil outweigh the pros.

I love the smell of vinyl in the morning

CDJ's and all the midi controllers out there are all trying to emulate the feel of a turntable, which in my book says something.

But then again, vinyl is a farkin expensive game to play
