Although I still feel that the scene has kind of killed off one of the greatest formats of music ever, the companies and manufacturers have still managed to keep it all together by still building quality hardware for DJ;s, I will miss my MK2s and as such haven't actually packed them away yet (just hid them from the partner :)). 
But I do question whether the love I had for the MK2's will ever truly transfer to the new models, maybe I am just getting old and it is a case of "Get off my lawn" when it comes to digital music, I dont like the idea that I could mix a set @ home and then play it via the USB port on any MP3 deck and kinda phone it home like a few pretty famous DJ's have been caught doing in the last few years.
Oh well all I can do is enjoy my purchase and see where the scene goes next!
