They offer a launch link, which just fires a proto link specific to the cloud player app (which does nothing, of course).<br /><br />I wonder if they've changed things around since this post was written.KPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03082709746299723498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103838.post-48392702513687792302013-05-29T14:54:40.241-05:002013-05-29T14:54:40.241-05:00Drenze - I think what I did when prompted to insta...Drenze - I think what I did when prompted to install the downloader was just download and promptly discard it. You will need to have your user agent set to IE and Windows as previously described. Again, Amazon's lazy lock out just checks if you've downloaded it - not if it's actually installed.Dr Ralphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11315005375209513833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103838.post-69462905632575393542013-05-28T08:37:24.573-05:002013-05-28T08:37:24.573-05:00Great post - thanks.

Firefox gave me the option to open Banshee with the AMZ file and it was seamless. Frustratingly it shows there is not a technical issue stopping them supporting Linux - they just can't be bothered. I have performed the requisite bitching!Mat Disshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00909771982010121986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103838.post-55452317323883777042013-01-24T23:44:05.904-06:002013-01-24T23:44:05.904-06:00I changed the user agent in Firefox browser and us...I changed the user agent in Firefox browser and using Banshee I can again download music from Amazon. I'm also keep bitching at Amazon customer service about this issue. <br />Thanks for the post!Rakithahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06940892196378095416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103838.post-30282085466792913162013-01-20T13:52:50.942-06:002013-01-20T13:52:50.942-06:00I just got hit by this Amazon "update". ...I just got hit by this Amazon "update". Had been able to use clamz on the .amz file for years. Very frustrating to have to download each individual song from the cloud player just because of the OS I use. I sent a complaint to Amazon. They replied promptly, and refunded my album purchase, but did not offer a solution. I'll be buying music elsewhere. Sad that they made a change to actually remove functionality.<br /><br />--Jason<br />Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01435124805297884802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103838.post-56703810237638753652012-12-10T00:01:29.081-06:002012-12-10T00:01:29.081-06:00Thanks for the article.

I was, however, just able to download the .amz upon purchase, and use clamz to extract the .mp3 files. This is the process I have always used when I purchase music from amazon, so I have not been affected by the new policy (which seems pretty half-assed, as you say)...well, as of yet, anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5103838.post-48680409290723650232012-11-18T16:02:15.425-06:002012-11-18T16:02:15.425-06:00Thanks for the tip.

I've tried this, but the issue I'm having is that Amazon now tells me that I need to install the downloader and won't let me download the AWZ file til I have.
