As I understand it, the one bpp got at signing was $4/mo. for 4 years ($192) was a one time or at least limited offer.

Hypothetical scenario or not:
I'm buying Audi due designs and layouts, quality workmanship, comfort, safety, driving quality is not due multimedia and whether supports Android, iOS or Windows.
The decision to purchase a car model because of phones and tablets
Anyone who buys a car due the operating system does not have a clue about cars. Easier and cheaper to change-buy new a phone/tablet
Car is purchases for driving and enjoying the same

This is an example of what I like to call automobile "operators". They know only that the car goes and they care not how or why. Years ago, my Father in law bought a 15,000 lb 5th wheel RV trailer for his retirement. THEN, he bought an F250 rated for 10,000 lbs to tow it around with. Unfortunately, the truck was not equipped to safely tow the trailer and he had to trade it in right away and get a proper tow vehicle. It cost him a fair amount of money to get his retirement plans back on track. Why did he select the wrong truck for the job: He liked the color of the paint!
YOU could care less what infotainment system your Audi has and that is great for YOU. You are 1 buyer out of 1.5 million+ and your reasons for buying Audi may not reflect each and every past, present or future customer's requirements.
If Audi's alliance with Google helps them to sell more cars to the "operators", they can keep building limited production drivers cars for the rest of us.

There are other alternatives with pay-as-you-go providers like PTel and Truphone that use the T-Mobile 3G network that can be less expensive if you don't use a lot of data such as Google Earth or the car's Wifi hot spot. Search the AW Forums for details.

I would wanted one Ferrari without infotainment system, all I need I have on my Android phone, and You take your Ford, Hyundai, Kia with complete infotainment system (NAV, 10-12" touchscreen, voice control, internet access 4G, satellite radio, TV, DVD, Bluetooth ......... ..)
Good luck
