According to Wikipedia at least, MTP is supported on Linux via libmtp, which is used on Amaraok and Rhythmbox as well an ability to mount an MTP device using FUSE and libmtp.

MTP may be a microsoft thing, but the implication that its going to be a complete bitch outside of windows doesn't seem quite fair, when two (very popular) Linux based media players have it out of the box it would appear.

Theres also an OSX thing for MTP, but it doesn't look anywhere near as good as Windows or Linux usability.

I know Engadget is slanted towards Macs, but "but if you want to use USB you won't have an easy time using it on non-Windows platforms" seems to mean OSX by "non-Windows platforms", as the Linux side of things for MTP doesn't look too shabby at all.]]>Nov 15th 2007 5:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/slacker-gets-official-on-portable-player-premium-radio-service/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/14/slacker-gets-official-on-portable-player-premium-radio-service/Nov 26th 2007 10:58PM
