Wow that's really dope now if you only hAd like a 16 gig card you'd really be in there...wait (turns iPhone over)... Never mind....

LOL I couldn't help it..... ;)

hahahaha!!!

Yeah. I think the iPhone can go up to 16 gigs? I'm not quite sure. Haven't upgraded from the 1G that came with it cause I always keep forgetting since I don't download a lot.... but now that I have this nice little program I'm going to look for one.


It's really useful! :)

Now all you need is that app to run your G1 with SL haha...sixxx shows up at the club hey can you play this song here its on my phone!!! haha jk

lol - someone else is another thread is asking if anyone has found a way
to run SSL on their iPhone. lol

Thats where the idea came from haha, i should give credit to that thread before they sue my estate for copyright violation

Busted! lol

Dude I would be nervous about downloading music, even legally, through your 3G connection. If you're doing it via WIFI or something, that's different, but 3G is a bad way to do it. Check your contract, because w/ AT&T (and I'd imagine it's the same w/ T-Mobile/Sprint/Verizon) you can get charged for downloading things not pictures/email/browsing, even if you have an unlimited plan.

It would be WIFI. So no worries.

Yeah but the limit is right around 5 gigs of contious use I can't see anyone going over that monthly limit... I constantly use my phone to preview tracks and conduct bussiness (net usage) and can't get anywhere near that..,

damn sixxx that means you should probaby stop streaming IRON MAN in HD through your phone

im running a unlocked iphone on tmobile with a granfathered 5.99 tzones data plan thats "unlimited" data and ive used it as a modem for my laptop before with some decent data usage. never got overage charges or extra data fees.

Yeah...like I said they might go after you...probably only if they decided to pick on you but it's just a possibility.

you can get 16 gig SD cards nowadays for pretty cheap

how fast do u download from idjpool?

Are there any other FTP based pools out there? Not saying iDJpool is bad, I'm sure it's great, just wondering if there are others out there.

My average is 65K p/second. It was half that but I've been getting this for a while now. :)


dead serious,

I'm not aware of any other FTP based pools.

so what other details can i get on this pool monthly rate genre of music and such (edits)

it lists their chart on the website... idjpool.com

not bad but are they better than cicana?

i saw a 16 gig mini sd card for like 50 bucks the other day...

would it work on my bb storm? hmm...

cicana is illegal and they steal music from other pools, including idjpool.

Hey sixx,

How do I sign up for iDJpool? I emailed them with my details about the company I work for, etc.

Currently I use X-mix and promo only, as well as other sources. But I like the ease of use of the iDJ pool layout. Looks like a great resource.

I'll give a big +1 to idjpool. I get around 75-125kb/s on average.

JT 3... the amount of music is insane... You may regret it. lol

Oh yeah, you can go to their website and just click on the contact link. Tell them I sent ya.... hopefully I can get something out of it like a free month. (I wish)

lol

:P

hey sixxx is ciana that bad? how much do you pay a month at idjpool?

FYI you need to hire an intern for the mass DL from idjpool

I just cant keep up.

Hahahaha. No doubt! I'm 3K files behind. But, I'm caught up with all the new shit on a week by week basis. I finally got a method to my madness.

I think any pool or music source that is illegal is bad because it hurts those who are trying to do things the right way.


I pay $50.00 a month. With the amount of tracks I get, that amount of $ isn't shit - Plus I do gigs, so it really just pays for itself.

Btw, I don't know how much the fees are now. I also pay $50.00 to get all the stuff including the VIP section and classics.

Contact them for your pricing info and what not.

classics, aye?

goes back to the 1950s!

oops i said too much!

i thought 8thwonder was dope. i'm going to sign up with idj and give em a try. 50 bucks isn't much when you compare it to the real vinyl pools.

idjpool looks like it's too much bad stuff to sort through, I looked at the Jan list and like I would probably download 8 to 10 of those songs, then probably end up playing like 4. lol

Yeah the "Dance" music looks painful..

You need to get iTunes then. You don't need a record pool if you're not willing or play to break new music. My bet is you don't understand what a record pool is all about.

yeah...probably.

With Hard Drive space being cheap now and the magic of itunes, this really isn't a issue anymore. Like sixxx said the idea of a Record Pool is to provide a DJ with access to music that he/she NEEDS but also music that the DJ could also break. My thought is usually been better to have it and not need it, than to tell someone - nope don't have that (within reason).

What I do with the idjpool Urban is grab the Dirty and Instrumental of everything released/posted. If it becomes a hit, I'll go back and get the Clean and maybe Accapella. With the Dance, I pick and choose what I think I may need by Artist or Remixer (Dance is just too insane).

I also use iTunes and look at "date added". One day (this summer maybe), I will go back and delete some stuff that I will never ever play, planning on cleaning up 2006/07 added (just been buying larger drives instead of deleting so far).

Back when you used to buy vinyl, wouldn't it have been cool to have access to all the 12" new singles in the entire store (good and bad) instead of 4 or 5 of the Top 25 records on the wall?

That is idjpool, for the most part.

Thanks sixxx for assuming I'm a complete DJ illiterate. :) Yes, I have iTunes (?) and you really feel that the only way to "break" new music is to subscribe to a record pool??

I get why DJ pools like idjpool work, and if I was a top 40 DJ that had to deal with requests all night then yeah I would be all over this like white on rice. But I'm not, so yeah in a sense I guess I don't "understand what a record pool is all about" because I've never subscribed to one. But I do know that I probably don't need to.

"Dance" music is just such a broad term, (latin? house? trance? electro? disco? who knows..) and it seems like the little bit that I browsed over was mostly big label stuff, which is another problem. I searched a bunch of my favorite "dance" artists and some very well known producers/artists signed to major labels in many electro styles and not a single one popped up in the "TOP 500 DANCE Singles Chart".

Most of the "dance" music I play is scattered across tons of different labels, or unsigned stuff, mostly "Electro" in nature (and it's not that I'm playing completely unknown stuff either, or only remixes). "Blog House", if that's what you want to call it, is part of the "dance" genre that feels very young and volatile, its not just a matter of grabbing everything the labels throw at you and sticking it on one giant FTP... although that would be an amazing resource. Hype machine is about as close as it gets, and even then you sill have to go to iTunes/Beatport/Whatever to buy the tracks (not to mention you're missing out on the real gems if you don't manually hunt outside of the aggregate blogs).

So in conclusion, no, idjpool is not for everyone... definitely not me. Is that what were debating here? I don't even remember. Whatever. Hah.

Oh, and I don't take requests. Ever. Maybe that helps too? :)

i used to say that, but i guess im old now :P

Some day when I'm sick of partying and just want a residency I'll probably change that policy. :)

OhCeeDee.... the comment about iTunes was for Alex Dreams who said,




You posted as I was typing a reply to his post. :)

Btw, I've been a radio DJ for years and I get a ton of music from various sources... all free. Unfortunately, it's a pain in the ass when I could just grab "most" of what I need from one place. That is the main reason why I'm a part of iDJPool. I believed I said that already when I first posted about it.

Could you or anyone ever get everything they need from one source and once source only? You'd be fooling yourself if you say yes. For instance, I love "underground" hip hop.... and iDJPool certainly isn't the place for that, but I get that through my other sources for free.

There's no real debate here. This thread was just created because I firmly believe that ftp pools (if there are any others out there) are the way to go... at least for someone like me.

Sixxx, if there was one source for all the music i need, let alone FTP i would crap my pants, and yes, i would probably gladly pay a monthly fee for it. That is def a big plus for DJs that play a lot of the music on iDJPool, and I've got no qualms with that, in fact I'm jealous!

Sorry, i figured you were addressing me with the iTunes post. I think i just assume people are ripping on me no matter what. :)

lol. Sorry for the confusion. I usually quote when i respond.... i thought i was quick enough and then bam! you beat me to it. (no chef) (no misquote)

----

I play more stuff than i get from iDJPool, so i get the rest from my other legal sources. Unfortunately, i have less and less free time nowadays so it's imperative I maximize how I manage whatever free time I have left.

The other thing i love about this pool is that it saved me a lot of time from having to rip all my commercial, classics vinyl. :)

hey is there any way i can download music to my blackberry bold. Its sad I am a dj n i don't have one ringtone nor any songs lol

lol


I don't know. Make a new thread in the Off Topic Section. I'm sure there are blackberry bold users here. :)

nah i'm not going to bother people with another thread like this forum is way too too crowded anyways lmao.

Here, I will help you. Make a new thread like this.


Favo[u]rite cell phone for ring tones. hahahaha

Sorry to hijack - but no. Nothing for the bold. Tried it with mine.

That sucks. So glad the g1 can use any song in your library as a ringtone.

Woops, my bad. I was referring to an FTP program for the Bold. You can apply any song in your library as your ringtone.

Ooooooh! That makes sense. lol
