Mashups and remixes are great. Especially when it has a completely different feel from the original, keeps people on their toes 'cause they know and like the original but they're getting a new experience from the remix or it being mashed with another track.

I see it as an advertisement for the artist. I, personally, would be stoked if anyone dropped any of my mashups. If the artist has it up for free then it should all be ok, just make sure to tell anyone who asks for the name of the track.
me still confused as to what the question was...
so you only play original mixes?...wow...thats some integrity...

Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal
If it's a remixed song it's hard to not play them. If it's a mixed set with more than two songs back to back (not a mash up) then absolutely not.
im pretty sure at least half my iTunes collection is made up of other peoples remixes. Most of the time the remixes tend to be better tracks than the original. thats usually why they remix things isnt it?
... im a little confused here also. The only reason i wouldnt play other peoples remixes, is if i were doing like a live set, where i was playing all my productions live. My DJ sets though are probably 2/3 or 3/4 other peoples remixes, a couple of originals, and sometimes i try whack in one or 2 of my own tracks aswel :P
