I have the iDrive and iPod connection. I loaded a USB flashdisk with some MP3 music and tried to load them onto the hard disk (there is one in the Nav system, as that is where the Nav data is stored). I could play the music on the USB drive, but it would not load onto the hard disk, referencing a usb port in the glove compartment, which I have not found yet.
To answer your question though, you should be able to load music onto the NAV hard disk from a port in the glove box if you don't order the iPod port.
I listen to book on CD a lot, and have started loading them onto an iPod to listen to them, so I can get the CD's back to the library on time.
