Less likely? I've had multiple USBs go corrupt and leave me hanging, but I've never had a CD stop working (unless I threw it around a few times and scratched it relentlessly).

And I thought USBs and SD cards were prone to be ruined if left in the sun (a real world concern in my part of the world)? If that's true, then it makes it a no-go for me.

But in-car cloud streaming would be pretty cool, actually. Someone should get on that.
