Just found the Audiophiles package on my 2012 X5 50i issue

They don't equipped with 6-CD changeable...only single CD/DVD..
Did I miss something?

Yes, at one point you got a 6 disk DVD changer in the glovebox. Not sure what package that belonged to ... something tells me for mine at least it was part of ordering the premium sound.

However, I have noticed the changer dropped off on later model years, although is still an option on the x5m.

I suspect, if you wanted it .. the wiring would be in place, and could be a dealer installed with necessary coding.

Although, with the days of iPhone's, iPods, Pandora, Satellite radio, etc ... the days of the changer are probably over and we will see them simply disappearing from the option list for ever.

Make sense.. I called them and was told as you said, the changer is removed from premium or individual sound packages in all 2012 model..,

ThAnks for sharing your thoughts...

You only need the single changer now--since you store (copy) music from your CD (as well sd from WNA. MP3, M4A and AAC files from a USB drive) to the entertainments systems hard drive. Once it is stored, you do not need the actual CD in the vehicle anymore. I think it is a 14 meg.

14giga is mor than enough to backup Mp3 and AAC files.
I gotta many music DVDs of concert or show... It gives amazing sound quality when you play loudly, easy to judge the difference between audiophile and standard package... If play quiet, not much difference.
