Get a USB-C drive and stick in the console vs using the USB-A in front of the wireless charging tray. I went back and edited my post as I had MP4 on the brain as have been fighting a Windows 11 update that broke MP4 videos on my laptop from playback.

I use FLAC for audio so not a lot of space on 40GB (have about 7 albums in the media collection). I also have a 2TB USB-C SSD drive in the console loaded to the gills with FLAC albums. 👍

I don't understand why BMW removes these little convenient options. Pretty stupid...
Sounds like a 7-series feature that is exclusive to it as the 5-series and 8-series don't have active bolsters.
