I never knew this..

http://www.autoguide.com/manufacture...ideo-1610.html

Reading through some reviews since there was a press event in Tennessee just a few days ago. I think it ended today. But I noticed in this review it states...

Otherwise the most notable update is to the MINI Connected telematics system, which gains the MOG music service. It may seem trivial, but infotainment is hugely important in a segment filled with young urban buyers. Plus, the update shows how versatile the MINI Connected system is, with new apps a simple download away.
While all Coupes will come standard with HD Radio and a one-year free subscription to Siriussatelliteradio, for $9.99 a month MOG gives subscribers access to 12 million songs. It even lets you create custom playlists. If you’re an audiophile or even if you think you’ll download more than 10 songs a month of iTunes, then this is a unique and valuable feature.
Wait.. First..

When did HD Radio become standard in a MINI? Did anyone know this? That is pretty awesome if true.

Second - he confirms MOG is available for those who use MINI Connected?? Whaaa? Has this always been true about MINI Connected? I thought it just did Pandora. This sounds like they expanded on the applications available. Don't know what MOG is? It is similar to what Spotify is..

Not sure when it HD became standard, but I do remember reading this when I was looking for my 2011. The 2011's at least all have HD.

I don't think MINI Connected always had MOG, just like they didn't always have pandora. Not sure when these became available, I think MOG was shortly after Pandora earlier this year.
