>From a technical perspective, I agree. At University stations and
Community stations there are many DJ's that have large libraries
that they bring with them. The stations could not practically
store tens of thousands of cuts from the many genres of music.
At one station, we have forty (40) different styles from rap to
gospel, Abba to Zappa, alternative, metal, big bands, jazz and
so on. Then there are the ethnic shows. We even maintain 
turntables (a DJ mixer for the rap/Hip-hop) and a single TT for
the big bands.

One of the staples I construct and install at my Univ clients is
a Bud box with two XLR female jacks, two 1/4" TRS and two
RCA jacks all wired in stereo, in parellel. This way an external
mixer, iPod, laptop computer, etc. can be accomodated into a
pot on the board.
