I use my phone for the hotspot and haven't run out of the 40gb data I'm allowed yet. At the same time, I don't use my car all that much either except on long trips. I'm retired and live in NYC where most of the time I take the subway to get around, at least into Manhattan. And Brooklyn is so congested I don't ever try.
320 vs hifi? No comparison. It just sounds muddy to me at 320. I was in my daughter's car checking out an issue she had with the speakers I installed and she played some boom boom music from spotify. It was a muddy mess. I played the same song on Qobuz at 16/44.1 and at least it sounded like music.
I've never even tried the USB as I skipped over that period of ripping all my CDs and also skipped the downloading from the iTunes store as the 128 mp3s weren't even worth the 99 cents they charged. For that price I wanted 24/96. Hence I don't have a hard drive or stick with music on it.
