Well, I suggest to have it turned on permanently as soon as the users 
configures first device to be used by amarok.

Because as for users who don't have a media device (as in one which can 
playback) at all it would be kinda sensless to have this tab shown at all - 
and for thoose who use USB storage it would be as well. So just turn it on 
when user once configured a media device sounds most reasonable to me.
