Really like the aynet+ even works with sky control - Bad points:

Touch buttons on the player are difficult to see and use.
The upright design may make it a bit obtrusive and unsuitable for some audio stacks and racks.

- Good points:
- I love the way it looks and sounds. Listening to music via ipod is a brilliant feature.
- Bad points:
- ipod menu on tv screen could make it easier to pick songs. I have many songs and it takes a while to get to the latter end of the alphabet! Wouldn't stop me purchasing this system though.
