Well, that's not quite true. You can plug USB devices that appear as mass-storage devices into the USB port in the glove compartment. From there you can import music from that device into the hard drive in the car. It's all described in the F10 Owner's Manual starting at page 186. You can also put CDs in the car and it will import that music into the hard drive on the car.

Personally, I just leave a flash drive plugged into the USB in the center console (6FL option) and stream the music directly off that. It has way more storage than the car allows.
