Well, I think they made a good decision, indeed. Cuz the only reason that I use Sony HDD player is that they have the custom EQ function, and the Digital Preset is useless and it makes no difference from other players, as Sony wants to be like no others, haha.

Back to my point, only the custom EQ can satisfy all sounding of music, the digital presets only changes the bass mostly, and it makes it sounds very artificial if you ever listened to the same sound in a costumised EQ setting. For me distorted heavy guitar riffing sound is a must. so I can't live without the custom EQ , and of course it gives great bass as well, just pretty the same way I used to listen from the MD EQ.

So, if Sony has really removed V-S and Digital Presets functions , then I see it as the wisest decision Sony made relative to how they make they players.

I never use the V-surround feature, and I don't understand why it would be useful for a portable device in the first place. It would be more useful in a home receiver, or on a movie capable device.

IMO, standard EQ is enough for a portable audio device. V-surround, SRS, Wow, etc IMO only distort sound.
