have you compared setting up the 2?

of course.
setting up a vpn server is a lot more configuration and need to add a tunnel device etc.
a socks is incredibly easy in comparison.
on the client side socks is easier as well.
although a VPN can do more eg. if you want to evade torrent shaping then a VPN is probably more suited than a proxy. But to just get round web site censorship its overkill.
