How does one reprogram the radio?

I know when I got the car, I had a friend with an Autologic download and install a number of updates to the car...mostly all drivetrain related. It took quite a while.

While the Autologic showed that there were available updates to the radio/nav system, the folks at Autologic advised him NOT to do the updates to the radio as it often bricks the whole system. I hope that's not what you're referring to when you say to reprogram.

I know for my now departed Cayenne, when I bought a new Nav disk, it came with a new software disk, and it was easy to install the updated software into the PCM via the Nav dvd drive. Is there something like this for the BMW?
