    Still a bit of a letdown. They took extremely long to now release a few minor features and still no upgrade path from Intro…
    They invest a lot of money into their “Icon” promotions, but seem to have to few programmers really doing work on their products or whatever… sad. If this holds on I will permanently switch to another solution.

    Yeah you’re right. For example, just yesterday I found out that still not all of my music was there; appearantly, Serato doesn’t support wma files. Having transitioned just recently from VDJ to Itch I can understand that people think Itch has a more pro look, but if you look at VDJ it has way more options concerning mapping, file support (I never had a single music file that VDJ couldn’t read), and other customizations.
    However I have to stick with Itch because wheneer I use VDJ at gigs, I always get witty comments and with Serato that simply dissapeared (and I must say that Serato Itch has a better and flexible beat grid).
    I think DJ Intro is a shame, a lot of companies are making 4 channel controllers now but that’s useless with Intro.

    This!

    Why does Serato refuse to make money on introducing an upgrade path to their Intro is beyond my retail comprehensions.

    First you release a software (some might argue is good introductory software), i personally believe is nothing more than a demo version of a real software, then bundle it with some pretty powerful controllers, only to cripple their potential.

    Then, when people are actually taken by the demo and want to give you some money for a full version you say – NO! That is some strange marketing in my books.
