Major differentials are the AA is single pulley system and uses a proprietary belt. MS uses two pulleys (not affecting A/C operation, which would also spin slower during everyday driving) and normal off-the-shelf belts for when replacement time is neeed (normal maintenance).
Just things to keep in mind when shopping.

Is that a concern on M3's?

Not a concern since the BMW pulley is separate does not disturb the harmonic balancer.
