    There are some good articles on the blog about building and maintaining a collection. Check them out!

    I agree with DJ Vintage, look up the articles on this website for some very helpful information.

    But I will still put in my $0.02. I am currently a subscriber to one DJ pool, which, of course, I pay a monthly fee and get unlimited downloads from this website. This website is more Top-40/EDM orientated, with countless amounts of remixes and acapellas to offer, with an okay amount of trap/twerk remixes of some songs.

    However, I choose this website because it’s only $15.00 a month, and it caters to and takes care of 99% of my EDM and Top-40 original/remix sets (seriously, I probably download up to 30 – 40 songs a month from this website at least).

    Hip-hop on the other hand, I find myself buying them individually from iTunes, being as how I’ve yet to find a record pool worth paying the monthly fee that is hip-hop orientated. I have found hip-hop/R&B remixes on these other DJ pools but not enough of them to make me want to pay the monthly fee.

    So re-cap:

    1. I use one DJ pool that caters to all of my EDM/Top-40/Top-40 remix needs.

    2. I use iTunes to buy 90% of my hip-hop.

    NOTE: I do <i>not</i> recommend using BeatPort. The problem with BeatPort is that all of their songs sound the same. It’s annoying. And they are also over-priced. They have $1.49 for a song you can get for $0.99 on iTunes or get it on most DJ pools. BeatPort is not worth your money.

    It’s called Digital Music Pool, it’s a growing DJ pool with unlimited amounts of fantastic Top-40 songs, some more recent than others, with plenty of great remixes.

    I get maybe 95% of my EDM tracks from a DJ pool, other 5% from either Itunes or beatport when exclusive or pool dosen’t have one specific song, witch is rare.

    I’m currently suscribed to zipdj.com. It has all current top 40, electro and prog house and A LOT of house and tech house witch I’m moving to. Used to be with djcity but switched to a better EDM genre pool and better service, but at a bit higher price unfortunatly.

    I used ZipDj a great source and great price for a pool. If you can pay the annual cost up front you save a few bucks. Depending on your needs I use Promo Only’s Pool.

    There is My 12inch and videotoolz 20. Most of the mention pools carry a broad range of genres.
