The best and the easiest are far from the same thing. It really depends on how much stuff you're trying to control and what you want the remote to do. I had a Logitec and I scrapped it - to many sub menus and not intuitive, although it did do a lot of things. For my money, the Sony RM VL-600 is great. Simple, cheap and you can assign any function to any button. They may not make it anymore, but I'm sure it has a successor. Good luck.
