@dj-e-lectric I don't completely agree that loaning a laptop is the most hastlefree or effective. If you a talking about vDJ, isn't each DJ likely to have his vDJ environment customized ? How would that work ?
Re: the method I propose, it shouldn't make a difference who the DJ is. If you have a policy that you secure your library via encryption, why would a DJ not respect that ? You also don't have to trust him/her. If they violate your trust, you will simply know about it. What you do after that is up to you.

(1) Part of the point is I don't want to have to do anything about it AFTER the fact, I want to prevent it upfront. It would be illegal for me to take any physical action against them, too expensive and very time consuming to take them to court to get an order to have their copies destroyed
(2) It's not going to be a laptop but something like a cube, a shuttle or other compact box.
(3) The environment can be customized anyway they want it...the skins are still interchangeable no matter what computer they are on....and for that matter if I let them use my computer then they would change MY environment.
(4) I will be able to use the new computer as a backup on my shows also.

Would you really lend someone your vinyl or CD collection? I don't see how lending them your digital music collection is any different, other than it being quicker/more convenient for them to copy it...

Either come off your files and let him have a copy or hire somebody you trust won't take em.
