Forgot about the SC2000, it's a great little controller.
The play/cue buttons aren't the greatest, but you got everything you need with the pitch fader and nice big jog wheel.
I've read that people were having issues with the play/cue buttons but I've had no problems with mine (knock wood) and I bring them with me to gigs a lot. I have just bought a hard carrying case for them so I don't knock em around so much but they've been rock solid for me so far.

I would guess that they are complaining about the feel rather than faults.

I think they've fixed it though on the newer models. Not too many complaints witht he MC3000.
As far as mixers go I would get a DJM 900 if I were you.
DJM850 for sure. Pro / will find in a lot of clubs... if not then a DJM900 or 800 will be there. Add CDJs in the future if you want
X1 mkII - You can beat match manually but if you're using traktor it looks v intuitive. I got the X1mkI and that with my DJM900 is my favourite controller way of mixing. (turntables stil being my favourite)
Launchpad / Maschine mkII
Traktor - Remix decks for live
Ableton to produce (i personally use Logic)

Thank you all for your input. Most times, the forums are the only way to validate information in reviews, walkthroughs, etc. I had a bit of luck this past two weeks in my search and got a great deal on pioneer gear. I bought the DJM900nx with a couple of cdjs 1000mk3 from a kid for 1500dollars, apparently he bought the gear to learn and never got around it...my guess is he needed crack money! Anyways, I guess Ill play with this for a couple of weeks and try to get my hands on one of them denons in person and see if the switch is worth it. Ill keep you posted.
