David Guetta 'beamed with chipper, boyish pride' about DJing with USB sticks, the Independent reported this week, highlighting the increasing ubiquity of Pioneer's next generation CDJ 900 and 2000 players. "Before, I used to come to clubs with vinyls [sic], tonnes of vinyls. My back was hurting [carrying them], it was terrible," the world's currently most popular DJ told Craig McClean. "Then I moved to playing CDs. Now this is what I use at my shows, I have all my music on this – 32 gigabytes", he added, reportedly waving a USB stick in the writer's face. His enthusiasm for USB sticks matched that of German tech-house star Timo Maas who in December told Skrufff he was already a massive fan of Pioneer's new stick-friendly CDJ2000 players. "I don't want to play with a laptop, that's against my principles. Firstly the whole setting up procedure in a club is a pain in the ass, and whenever I see other DJs using laptops it just doesn't look right. Many guys don't even wear headphones anymore, they don't do any physical work and just look at the screen. I find this . . . strange,' said Timo.
