http://ubuntuforums.org – You can buy and download singles on amazon mp3 but they seem to have completely dropped linux support for downloading complete albums. if you want to do so you have to download each track separate.

Amazon download via Banshee 38 weeks 2 days ago

Did someone break the link between Banshee and Amazon as ~I just tried to download an Mp3 (Whole album actually) and instead of Banshee automatically loading I was taken to the "Install Amazon downloader" page.

Which of course doesn't work by default anymore.
