Anybody try playing online music after the latest update? It seems to be playing for me without even turning on my hotspot. I accidentally found this out last night after asking Hey Mercedes to play SiriusXM and instead it started playing some song named Sirius and the source was Amazon Music. Tested it out some more today and it showed some Apple Music playlists that I created last week, so it's definitely syncing with my account.

ETA: did some more testing and I confirmed there's no data plan. I went to the browser and it still prompts me to buy a data plan. Also confirmed TuneIn Radio works fine, it shows current podcast episodes. Spatial music works with Apple Music, even showing the Atmos icon. Tried all this without my phone nearby and no CarPlay icon showed up.

Same here! Just picked up my new EQE SUV on Friday. I hadn't even hooked my phone up and yet I was somehow able to play Apple Music after linking in the Mercedes Me app. Like you, the browser prompts me to buy a data plan for T-Mobile. Really curious as to what's going on here.
