iPod DJ Fail Proves Gadgets Are Only As Efficient As Their User

This iPod wedding is another case of technology versus tradition. Are you one of those technology-savvy people who relishes the thought of integrating the latest gadgets into your lifestyle? Some things are better left alone--especially when planning your own wedding.

Entertaining wedding guests via an iPod is an idea gaining ground as consumers embrace new tech toys. But groom and bride beware, this particular event may be best left to the professionals.

Implications - Besides, isn't it too soon for us to forego the time-tested tradition of wedding DJs? I'm sure more than a few working (and developing) turntablists make their bread and butter DJing marital ceremonies while they're working on their careers. I wouldn't feel right knowing that I hampered the development of someone who could be one of the world's best. It's worth spending the money for a DJ and avoiding a catastrophe like the one seen in this video.
