> while the BMW uses a dial along with the touchscreen

I have a Bmw with both, and I never use a touchscreen, using the idrive joystick is so much easier than reaching for a touchscreen

It is great, same system exists in my Mini with a pre-touchscreen and I use it with Spotify all the time. I love it to pieces. (edit: Yes, I know Mini is owned by BMW and that is why the same (literally) tech is in my car.)

I believe mini is owned by Bmw, a lot of the stuff is borrowed from Bmw
