What exactly is the MediaStore?  How do users interact with the
MediaStore?  It's woefully under-documented.  My most nagging question
at the moment is: what are its playlists and how are they used?  Do
these correspond to playlists in the Music app?

Some background: I have a simple TTS app that synthesizes to files,
and I'd like to just reuse an existing media player to play these
files instead of creating yet another media player.  I noticed there's
a Music app preinstalled on my phone (LG Optimus V running Android
2.2).  Its GUI shows an empty library.  I'm looking at populating it
from my app, but despite the presence of a Playlists API, there's no
way to create playlists or otherwise populate the Music app (and I
can't seem to create a new playlist from the GUI either - there are no
menus, context menus, help, etc.).

[BTW, is this app the same thing/an older version of (Google) Music,
which I also have just installed?  Basically, I have two Music apps,
one 2.2.1/8KB/blue speaker icon and one 3.0.1/7.36MB/headphone icon.
I similarly can't do anything in the 3.0.1 app either.]

Thanks in advance for any answers.
