Though I have had xm in my vehicles for many years now I think I'm finally over it. Audi gets traffic info from audiconnect and the bit rate of xm is pretty terrible (some stations seem worse than others). On the B&O system the lack of quality is very noticable. I don't know if you use a music service for your phone, but I use Google music and it is fully integrated into the mmi via Bluetooth! I couldn't believe it. All my playlist are there and if I want to add a new album just link it to the account and voala. I can set the streaming bit rate (quality) but I have unlimited data so bring on the quality and let the b&o sing. Also if you want to save data you can save playlists or albums to the phone/sd card. The best part is the family plan bc it works on iOS and Android.
That said sometimes it is nice to let the DJs do the work and just play some good music I have forgotten about. Haha .Enjoy the new car!

But I'll definitely look into the Google music also.
