MM, MC, or MI cartridge

Can somebody briefly describe the difference in the sonic characteristics of these types of cartridge, if possible?

I’ve never had a MC and I’m wondering what difference it would make.

It you're looking for a natural presentation, go SoundSmith MC are fun but not a natural/live presentation of the live performance.

Has a natural presentation yet is still dynamic with excellent resolving ability.
