"I'm a DJ, look how many mp3's I've got"

OK, maybe if you're using Serato (a component to hook up real turntables to a laptop and play mp3's over a soundsystem but using them with real vinyl records, for those who don't know) you can say this at a bit of a push, but simply pressing start/stop on a program that automatically beatmatches songs together takes no skill whatsoever, let alone the jockeying of discs...

Why won't they play the instruments like they used to.

They're too busy taking Pokemons and playing with drugs.

Yes and no...
Lots of DJs use Ableton Live rather than Serato. There's a lot more to Ableton than just pressing start and stop and letting it beatmatch. Do you also disagree with DJs using CDJs?

And programming a set and responding to the crowd is just as, if not more, important as the physical aspect of DJing.

'And programming a set and responding to the crowd is just as important as the physical aspect of DJing'
That sounds like something someone who really knows they ain't no DJ, deep down in their soul, but thinks they are because they've got an MP3 player full of tunes, would say.
