I took delivery of my new 530 two weeks ago and raised exactly this issue with my dealer together with the missing extended voice control from the Professional Nav I ordered.
The sales guy (very helpful) raised this with a product manager for BMW UK and the official answer back was that there is a planned software fix (BMW service pack 1, anyone?) in or around September and both of these problems should be addressed then and I should have it fixed for free.
Cheers

Logic suggests that the CD/DVD drive in the middle console will be able to read any data-encoded disks including MP3 because it can already read data files off the navigation DVD that comes with the sat-nav pack. The issue is therefore software not hardware.
Having said that, I have no idea whether the optional 6 disk CD changer will support data disks. If I was a betting man, I would wager "no".

My dealer told me that MP3 playback will not be supported by the CD changer. As I read in another thread, the CD changer does not support CD-Text, while the in-dash CD player does, so I guess that the CD changer won't support MP3 either.
