The USB/iPod adapter has been standard in the 328i for quite some time, so there's more than just the "BMW business model" working here.

BMW knows very well that it is nickel and diming but this is the USA premium market, not the European plain market where they can even offer roll up rear windows in some 3-Series as standard equipment and it is completely normal.

I agree with the poster above as well, the Premium Package (PP) should be standard including the USB in all 5-Series, and the PP2 should be the only PP.
