Yes, Spectro was the supplier of BMW oil until 2015. At the Salem OR. rally I spoke with the rep for Spectro , we had a very good talk. I do not know who makes it now.
I say if anything just change your oil frequently is better than the proper oil not being changed for 10-12,000mi..
Of course, one could always use the proper grade of oil and change it at the factory-recommended intervals.
Seems like (to me) all the oil is pretty good nowadays.
Go with AMSOIL Synthetic and never look back.
