This weekend I bought and downloaded a couple of MP3 albums from the AmazonMP3 store. It was an almost perfect experience. The only hiccup was that I had clicked on the “By MP3 album with 1-Click” button, but then canceled the Amazon MP3 Downloader installation because something came up and I had to leave my desk. (You need to install that application in order to buy full albums.) Sometime later, I went back to the AmazonMP3 store, but couldn’t find my download waiting for me in the regular cart, so I browsed the catalog again to find the album, then did the 1-Click purchase. The Downloader started, and I could see the progress going, but then noticed that it was downloading the album twice! I opened up the Download Folder, and found two copies of each song. However, it seems Amazon is smart and I was only charged one time. But still, that order that was in limbo is a little bit screwed up.

What is cool about the Amazon MP3 Downloader app is that it automatically adds the new songs to iTunes. Very convenient! I really like the Amazon MP3 Store and recommend it fully!
