I currently use syncthing to manage all the distribute all of my music
between my ubuntu Desktop, my windows laptop and my phone and have never

I have seen reports that mtp was not well supported and slow.? At the KT on Saturday I was advised to try btsync which also works well.? I have now managed to get my tracks on my phone but will have to do some reading to get to grips with configuration!!
