Connected Drive vs Bluetooth Update

I was recently doing some looking and noticed a recent thread about bluetooth updates. There are totally different locations and files available for each?


If you search under Connected Drive you get much newer files than Bluetooth alone. Both allow you to enter your VIN and give you access to files. Any thoughts on the differences and the rational for 2 systems??

This is the Connected Drive link Newest is UPD5021.bin

This is the Bluetooth Link-Newest is UPD5011.bin

Thoughts??

Web master needs to be fired. Its just a newer and an older update on separate links instead being consolidated on the same link.

If I remember correctly UPD5011.bin was posted maybe a month before UPD5021.bin. I commented about the release of UPD5021.bin here.

Just updated. Spotify via Bluetooth actually shows correct info and album art now when switching between tracks.
