The screen space is smaller than the Mylink and even when glare isn't a problem, it is difficult to read because of the size of the graphics. Also the HVAC controls on Mylink are much easier to use, especially while driving. And the steering wheel controls do not always function with an aftermarket system. On the plus side, if you get Garmin navigation, it's appreciably better than the stock Mylink nav.
This is mainly all 100% false, With mylink you'll spend...

850+ on the unit
200-300 on wiring
200-300 on reprogramming
50-150 to get it installed by a professional
It's nice, but aftermarket is better

500-1500 for a nice unit (go nex4000)
300 for Head unit dash kit
50-100 for install, comes with stereo wheel controls, depending on which nex you get it might come with gps.
Aftermarket units can be smaller or larger than mylink, you choose what to buy.
