    Anyone used it yet?

    I like the new layout but still no needle drop type player to listen to sections of the full track. Still nice and easy to browse through tracks which i always liked about beatport.

    I was just on there and it kept freezing. Pile of shite. Looks pretty though.

    Not a fan of flash but I prefer the old version because the keyboard shortcuts work and make sense.

    I arrow through tracks and ctrl + return to buy them.

    the keyboard shortcuts work on the beta version. A list is available if you click key commands top right of the screen

    The shortcuts are the main reason I use it. Makes browsing much easier

    Yeah I'm saying they make more sense on the flash version - I go through every release. These new ones are ok if you've got an EP or Album open but not everything released for the last 3 weeks.

    aye.
    I hate the old version and always wanted it to be updated, though since it has I have found myself going back to the old one!

    Its more appealing on the eye the new one but the old one is a bit like an old friend, you know it inside out, know where to get what you are looking for and despite it doing your head in the thought of moving on from it is a little weird :lol:

    I tend to stay away from it tbh - i'm common so obv i use Trackitdown. Beatport just looks 'too' nice and too confusing IMO.

    AND i always fucking press the back and forward button on my browser. plank.

    new version lets you do that without kicking you to the front page. Lets you go forward or back like a normal web page
