Biggest pain the ass to load songs into the music collection hard drive (12.5 gb internal). Why BMW couldn't provide some sort of ability for it to connect to a computer, as any other external hard drive is beyond me.

Anyone attempted to do so, with any luck? There must be a way. The USB stick sucks...

For the record, the entire system is a bit redundant if one has an iPod. I have a 60gb, I keep in the car 24.7. The navigation is equally awkward to use.

Lots to choose from though. AM, FM, HD, Satellite, iPhone Pandora, Music Collection 12.5 gb, iPod 60gb, 1-DVD loaded with songs...what more can one ask for?
