    Basically...

    This is basically it:

    MSC is 'Mass Storage Control(?)'. This means that you can plug the M6 (or anything else for that matter) in a toaster (provided that said toaster has a modern OS with a USB port) and it will be recognized. MSC mode means that the OS will mount the device as a Removable Drive.

    MTP is a mode that will enable the M6 to play nice with DRM laden music management software (Windows Media Player for example).

    Currently I'm using MSC, since MTP mode hangs on WMP.

    That's basically it, and that it stands for mass storage class.
    Can't wait to play with the Meizu MX!

    I also use MTP because of WMP 11, I have to use it or else my album art won't work on my Meizu.
    I've tryed it with MSC but the album art would'n work.

    Otherwise MTP also hangs my Meizu in use with WMP11
    Maybe another bug that can be solved with the next firmware?

    I tried making WMP 11 work with the new firmware, but it hangs. I'm still using MSC mode in the M6 with WMP 11.
