I've been looking to change my unit for over six months and haven't had much luck finding a good solution. I recently installed the underseat ghost subs from Bavsound and am waiting for their stage one kit which should be coming in sometime in April. The stock deck doesn't have the best functionality but the sound quality is pretty good. I use the Aux connection for music.
The AUX input is much inferior to the USB. It's just unless you've paid the BMW tax (options) your USB port is not exactly "universal". The only device that's practical, and gives the highest possible fidelity, is a memory stick.
