Amazon's MP3 downloader


Just a few months ago, Amazon has released its MP3 downloader for linux. I installed in Ubuntu Gusty Gibbon, i have to say it was very easy. Amazon provides a pretty basic instructions on installing it on Fedora, OpenSuse, Debian and Ubuntu. I really think this is a milestone for linux, we all finally have a way to purchase legal music. We all need to spread the word on DRM free music because that is the future. Go amazon!!!!
