Ultimately, I wouldn't say any of the 3 main DJ softwares are better than the others, they all have their own unique strengths and weaknesses and it's important for you to choose based on how you feel you're going to progress as a DJ to save you the hastle of transferring your library I'm not very familiar with traktor but I hear its good with controllers, so that may be something to take into consideration if you're looking to stay as a bedroom DJ With that said, rekordbox's vinyl support is pretty rubbish, so if you're thinking about going into vinyl at some point it may be worth starting with serato and progressing to serato scratch live. This means if you intend to play in clubs in future then investing into rekordbox early will definitely be worthwhile. Rekordbox is the current industry standard in clubs, and had been for quite some time.
