Stropping - Worth it? Compounds or no compounds?

I wish I could, but I live in an apartment and don't have anything akin to a workbench. I'll be pretty much limited to pre-mades, as I have few tools.

Given that, what are some recommendations for pre-made strops and compounds? (I'll have to check out the one from knivesplus, as I've had good experiences with them in the past.)

You can always wrap newspaper around a bench stone and use that with or without compound. I've also had good luck with the fiber sheet gasket material at the car parts store.
