Clearly, digital signage readers are interested in content — and what they might be doing wrong with it.

As we take look our monthly look back at the most-read articles and blogs from the previous month, we have a repeat offender — our No. 4 piece this month, "The 7 deadly sins of digital signage content: What you're getting wrong," was our No. 1 piece in last month's top five recap.

Our No. 5 piece, "Digital signage graphics: Where to find them," is also about content.

And our No. 3 piece is "9 things about digital signage I'd tell myself if I could go back in time."

Still, our second most popular piece is a more recent posting, one that was almost guaranteed to generate controversy, "Is the digital signage media player close to extinction?"

And our top story is headed in an entirely different direction, with a look at how increasingly "Banks are banking on digital signage."

Without further ado then, here they are, in reverse order, the five most popular articles and blog posts, by pageviews, for the month of September:
