2008 CDI head unit MP3/DVD

My 05 would play MP3 dvds. Is there a code of firmware upgrade to allow my 2008 to achieve this? Need my MPS/DVD. It was a great option to getting an ipod. Or did they do this so they could sell you that option. Any suggestions to an aftermarker conversion for ipod?
Thanks.
Great forum.

I think this is a matter of the hardware not software. If someone could figure out a way to let a CD drive read a data DVD that would be great, but to my knowledge it has not happened.
