Direct Turntable
What is better, belt drive or direct drive turntables?
Really, neither. The all-around quality and performance of the table are more important than the drive system used to get there. Comparing specifications is a good place to start when comparing turntables.
For example, the Technics SL-1200MK2 direct drive will outperform many "budget audiophile" belt drives and most mass market belt drives. Most of the vintage direct-drives will outperform the belt-drive models from the same manufacturers with much better speed stability and noise specs. But, there are more expensive and better built audiophile belt drives that will outperform those. There are also a few very expensive audiophile direct-drives out there that come close enough to as good as it gets... So, I can't really say one drive system is better than the other. What matters most is quality and how well the design of a particular drive system is carried out.
Direct drive is definitely better for DJ use or "scratching". More torque, faster recovery, better pitch control and no belt to break or slip off while the DJ manipulates the platter.
