Hi Edward, I had trouble downloading the Amazon MP3 downloader, and gave up on buying downloads from the computer. Now that High Street Options for buying physical albums is getting like looking for snowploughs in the Sahara, I'm going to have to think again. Having already ripped an extensive CD collection onto my computer, I'm reluctant to experience the nightmare of Itunes annexing my music collection. So, please can someone advise how and where you should instal the Amazon MP3 Downloader?

On your computer, you’ll have the choice to either download your music directly or play it in the cloud. The Cloud Player on the computer isn’t as accessible as the version for the iPhone, which works quite well. In order to directly download music on your computer, you’ll first need to install the Amazon MP3 Downloader, it will prompt you to do this when you first buy music. Another accessible option is downloading music from iTunes. Hope that helps. Ed From: access-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of G.

It depends on whether ITunes lets you access the Amazon cloud. Certainly you can import MP3s into Itunes. I also know you can set the Amazon downloader to open Windows Media Player. There’s perhaps a possibility that the Amazon Downloader might open up the ITunes player but I’m not sure.
