How to download from Amazon?
« on: June 04, 2012, 12:17:53 am »

Killed precious time today figuring out how to download single tracks from Amazon, then moving and renaming them after MC dumps them into an "unknown" folder (seriously?).

Now I'm trying to download a full album from Amazon. First from within MC, I get a nag to install Flash. The link says if you're using Chrome, which I am, you don't need to download Flash because it's built in; just needs to be enabled. Well it already is enabled. Now what?

Then trying to download from outside MC, I get a nag from Amazon to download the Amazon Downloader, which will automatically put files in either iTunes or WMP, which of course I'm not using.

So just how do people DL anything from Amazon?

OK, it made me install Cloud Drive on my PC, then dumped the album in my documents folder. Wonderful.

It looks like it's required, but if you read carefully, you can skip that step.

The Amazon downloader has a setting you can use to put the files in a different directory.

I don't know about the problem with installing Flash.
