And I do use the SD slot, with a dozen GB of MP3. Anything fancier does not make much sense in a car.

I guess my American is showing here, but, do you not want a better stereo in what is arguably one of your most expensive purchases? Your Skoda is just a VW Polo under the skin, and lots of aftermarket headunits are available. I've replaced the headunit in most of my vehicles over the years. Worth it every time, plus it's one of the easier ways to modernize an older vehicle (even my 2008 Toyota Sienna got a new headunit).

    I don't think any car can ever have the acoustic qualities needed to tell the difference between FLAC 192/24 and a decent MP3. Assuming that's possible at all, but that's a different discussion.

    I don't think I'd care to go through the trouble of replacing the headunit (which already supports Android Auto) to optimize for codec selection. If anything I'd replace the speakers.

    But I don't use the car so much on local movement (german city, plenty of other options) and on the highway I think the noise is bit too loud to be worth it. I'll probably just wait until the current ones age enough to annoy me, then buy a nicer set.
