Title: Problems using Amazon MP3 Store ("this feature requires an internet connection")
Post by: dietric on January 19, 2008, 09:43:32 am

I'm having some trouble using the Amazon MP3 Store. Occasionally, when trying to open a page, I will get the message:
"this feature requires an internet connection".
I do not have similar problems accessing those pages thru my web browser (Firefox)l, and I do have a permanent internet connection which is not giving me troubles otherwise.

MC uses IE's engine internally for Web access.  Check to see if you can access the Amazon MP3 Store via IE (it could be IE-specific security settings).

Also, if you are going to use the Amazon Downloader (in order to purchase full albums), you'll need to activate the downloader in IE manually (because if you use Firefox as your default browser, when you install the Downloader it only activates it there).

I explain the steps here: http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=43920.msg300554#msg300554

Does Amazon provide liner notes, art etc too ?

High quality cover art, and most of the "standard" tags are included, but lyrics, bios, and whatnot have not been for anything I've purchased.  All of my purchases have been from smaller indie labels though, so I can't speak to what they do for popular music.
