Samsung Electronics and German automaker Audi teamed up to enable users to listen to MP3 music files from their mobile handsets over the car’s stereo system. The system was first demonstrated at the Audi corporate headquarters in Germany last week.

Samsung says their future D600 mobile phone with Bluetooth technology will have 30GB of storage for personal music collections. The “Super Music Phone” is expected to hit the market mid next year and sports a 2 megapixel camera with TV output.

The new mobile handset adopts Bluetooth stereo technology called Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP), which allows MP3 music files in mobile handsets to be transmitted to an A2DP capable car stereo system.

The electronics giant plans to expand A2DP supporting cellular phone models in the future, including the i300 smart phone that comes with a 3-gigabyte hard disk memory.

On a similar front, U.S. digital jukebox maker Apple Computer is expanding partnerships with global auto nameplates, such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi, to incorporate MP3 players into their latest luxury models.
