    Virtual DJ is good for beginners but advanced level DJs use Abelon.

    but yes Virtual DJ is the most popular also and easily customizable.

    Did you mean Ableton Live? =)))

    DSS DJ is a nice piece of software too, it has much less features when compared to VDJ or Traktor, but the quality of mixing is very good.

    If you want to play live, you will need an external 5.1 soundcard, otherwise you'll not be able to listen (preview + pitching) to next track without the audience listening to it with you :D
