Sure it will work!

You are confusing the AUX interface with the ipod interface. They are two different things. The AUX interface is "only" a plug-in for a stereo jack plug (analog) and ipod interface is a digital connection and with that you can browse the ipod through the idrive. That is not possible via the AUX interface because only audio signal is running through it. You can attach any player in to an AUX interface with a stereo cable that has a 3,5mm jack plug.
