One of muso's features is that one can view the jpgs and pdfs that are located in the album folder, either within the album folder or a "scans" subfolder. To do something similar using a tablet one needs to have a program that can access and read the album folder on the computer running LMS. Of course Squeeze Commander, Orange Squeeze (another android controller app) or iPeng (an iOS controller app) and the file reader program would not be linked so one would have to know the exact location of the album folder in order to view the contents.
