Install amazonmp3 on a 64-bit desktop

  • 772

Try to install amazonmp3 on a ubuntu desktop 64bit edition. Amazon only supports Ubuntu 8.10 32Bit version. I googled around to see if there was a way to install 32 bit packages under 64 bit Ubuntu, I ran into http://www.ensode.net/roller/dheffelfinger/entry/installing_amazon_mp3_downloader_under (using getlibs).

But there are some missing libs

Is there a way to install amazonmp3 on a 64bit Ubuntu?

    I would advise you to take a look at this Ubuntu Forums posting - though it is written for 10.04.

    However there are alternatives to installing this package from Amazon: there are alternatives to the Amazon MP3 Downloader. Pymazon is an option, and there is also now a Banshee extension to do the job.

  2. Install Clamz from the Ubuntu Software Center

    Just went to the "Ubuntu Software Center" and looked up amazon and noticed there was a program called "Clamz" says that it's for downloading mp3 from amazon.

    what I did

    1. Installed clamz from the Ubuntu Software Store
    2. Purchased the album I wanted from Amazons site - One click download link
    3. Amazon sent me a link with an amz extension
    4. Opened the amz file and a terminal window opened and I was downloading

    Not the pretties, but really awesome!
