I did not write in my message, but I did that. Turned out, the "formatting"
did not erase the partition table, causing this strange behavior (piano and
Android seeing files invisible to Linux). I guess if I used the drive long
enough the two things would have corrupted each other's data....

C'mon: a piano helps one making music, a toaster helps one making
breakfast. Is music smarter than breakfast? I argue yes ;-)

But I agree we need an official
list_of_electronic_devices_able_to_access_USB page on Wikipedia with a
sortable table reporting (among other things) the smartness of the device.

Cheers,
Davide
