my problem with beatport is that the preview quality is atrocious.   
you can't tell if the production of the actual recording is any good  
and that deters me from buying any digital downloads. i think this is  
especially shortsighted when you consider that in the idiom of  
electronic dance music the production IS the music.

i'm really hooked on bleep.com. the preview system they have there is  
perfect. you see the entire track as a waveform and can shuttle  
instantly anywhere in the track, with really decent preview audio  
quality that plays for about 20 seconds before fading to silence.

it's also a beautiful website done by the geniuses at kleber.net.
