I just found a load of old DIN Rounded Letraset my dad gave me about 20 years ago. It's pretty :)

ya lowercase gets -100 from me. There are now much better options for that nouveau-utilitarian look.

I guess DIN's OK. Haven't used it in over a year myself. Not the greatest for text settings.

it's not everywhere since 2000. that's when people started ripping each other off till death. also, that's when the design boOM! started (yeah! most of it is fake).
anyway, you can get a free version if you search for Din Mittelschrift in the proper channels. I can't say anything else.

Microsoft seems to have redone it for zune. From what I've seen so far, '7' has lost its distinctive serif, but other than that it seems ok

The Linotype version isn't nearly as prolific. You're thinking of FF DIN.
