HD Radio now included in Tech Package

SnowGator · 03-29-2009, 12:40 PM

I ordered my M3 on 3/14, and was a little surprised when I was finally able to log on to the online tracking and saw that the HD radio option was included under the tech package. I double-checked with the online configuration tool, and selecting the tech package does indeed now include the HD radio. It must have changed very recently; apologies if this is a repost.

Not a huge deal to me, but was a nice bonus.

Lots of members say that the HD radio sounds like crap. I haven't heard it myself so I cannot give an opinion, but I will soon enough, as my ///M has hd radio as well.
Just thought you should know

Not a fan of HD Radio either. Some stations have a second station that plays music commercial free, but its no good if it keeps cutting in and out.

HD Radio is now built-in into the iDrive, it is not exclusive of the Tech Package...

Never listen to it; mainly just the iPod through 6FL
