What kind of CD's can be played in my F90

Can I play all formats - such as SACD and others?

What the hell is a CD?

You have an 8-track deck too?

If you have lossless audio on your phone, plugging in via USB should yield similar results.

Strangely, with iPhone, if you pair phone with car it won't let you use it for usb audio-out.

For every BMW I've been in, it's a one-or-the-other connection... You're connected wirelessly via bluetooth, but it changes to USB if you plug in USB.

The stereo in the Audi's lets you choose whether or not your phone is connected for TELEPHONE and/or Streaming BT. I think that is a better option to be able to choose your poison. I use the cars harddrive as my source most of the time. I have to spend some time this weekend moving some music from my mac to the car. Most of the CD's I have uploaded to itunes over the years were done with the lessor compression, AAC instead of MP3. You really can hear the difference between those. If you choose the totally lossless then your iTunes collection would be HUGE. Music DVD's are a good option for high density and loss less copies. It's a bit of work!
