Correct - MSDP is PIM SM specific....from:
http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-msdp-spec-08.txt

The Multicast Source Discovery Protocol, MSDP, describes a mechanism
to connect multiple PIM-SM domains together. Each PIM-SM domain uses
its own independent RP(s) and does not have to depend on RPs in other
domains.
