GBBeatport has lost its way. Beatport has gone from being a relatively decent and useful platform to a poorly managed, greedy enterprise that clearly doesn't listen to, or give a **** about its customers. Between the dreadful 'upgrade' of an already terrible user interface, to increasing the price of tracks to the point that they're now beyond garnering interest or investment. This started with having to pay to download your own purchase history and went from bad to worse. This platform is done for me. If I can't get it on Bandcamp or Amazon (both of whom retain free access to your own purchased back catalogue), I'll simply move onto some other producer and platform that works. I say this as someone who would have spent a considerable amount every month at Beatport, however no more.

ITHype is just a waste of money It's about one year since I subscribed to the Hype plan and I NEVER SEEN a single act from Beatport to promote my music: no banner, no charts, no staff picks, nothing. My music is not so bad and if promoted gives me good results, so... what are we paying for??

GBThey Keep Everything!! This website, is in cahoots, with a distribution label, by the name of Octiive/IIP-DDS. The label is a scam, and BeatPort, feels as if, they can keep every dollar, of an artist's revenue, after providing much proof, of a fraudulent music label. I've contacted them using legal(at)beatport.com email address, and no reply. I reported them to the BBB, and now their tryna play nice, but still no resolution.

GBThe most important music store for DJ's! AAAA++++ Beatport is without doubt the most important place for DJ's to discover and get the hottest and latest tracks, the curated playlists and charts are a great guide the quality of the audio is excellent, yes the search speed could be quicker but I get that the site is huge and has a tremendous amount of music which is actually very well organised. I have just subscribed to their streaming service too that works well with Traktor - thanks guys! AAAA++++

NZUnusably slow!!! Beatport used to be quite good, getting into the DJ thing again a few years later but seriously the website is just pure rubbish! Can't seem to play music for longer than 15secs before is pauses for 20secs, takes up to a minute to load a track, just unusable, cannot get a feel for music with all of the waiting and interruptions, over it! Beatport sucks, they have really screwed it up and currently looking for alternatives. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE if you require a stable and reasonable working website. Drives me MENTAL!
