Amazon MP3 Downloader
Topic: Technology 10:46 am EDT, Jun 27, 2008

I've been loving Amazon MP3 for a couple months now. Its just so damn easy. I can find who I want, move it back and forth between Linux at home, my work laptop, and my iPod with ease.

The only thing that is annoying me is Amazon's MP3 Downloader. When you buy a song without the download you just get an MP3. When you use buy a song with the MP3 Downloader it files the MP3 away nicely into a directory structure in "My Music" and automatically adds it to iTunes. Amazon is doing some kind of detection in the browser and servers you an AMX file for the downloader instead of a raw MP3.

Only it seems that my browsers "forget" about the Downloader after every reboot. Amazon goes back to gives me MP3s. I'm not sure whether the browsers just no longer detect the program or whether the file association is lsot or what. Its gotten so bad I just keep the install file on my desktop and do an uninstall/reinstall everytime I need to shop.

Grrrr. I don't know anyone at Amazon, but if you are reading this, I love your service and please fix this issue.
