If you get the Pro Nav you can do almost anything you want!

Can stream by BT, use the SD card slots (probably best), transfer to the SSD, and there is a USB connection for an external HDD (I was told by dealer) or flash drive.  There is also an Aux-in.

Lots of choices.

Can you use .m3u playlists for the stereo to play on SD card?

Using iPod at the min in MK6 but have a bit of trouble at times with the ipod needing reset and will ditch iPod in MK7

iPhone for me (guess ill have to invest in a lighting adaptor). Will try the sd slot too to see if that effects the clarity, but I shouldn't of thought so.

I will be using my iPhone. Does anybody know / have any experience using Spotify?! Will it work and will it give me album art?

I use spotify in my Mk6 and it works pretty well. I can flick back and forward between tracks and the sound quality is good but I don't think artwork shows up. I also have a funny problem where I can't actually see how far into a track I am - it will give me completely random numbers for time elapsed and left on the track. Easy to stick a playlist on though and I can skip any songs I don't like :-)

I assume it'll be the same/improved in the new car.

If you cant see how long a track is it means you have too high a bit rate. Ive got it on most of my tracks which are 320 bit rate. They dont need to be that high, 192 is high enough , but thats how i got them. Not sure if the new units will take higher but rates?
