Swallowing your Linux pride and setting your user agent to make Amazon

clamz, mentioned in the link, is I think command line and seems a little hard to find to install. Once you have the .amz file Banshee and Amarok, and I guess other players, have no problems doing the import. I did it the other day with my newly ripped Amazon CDs using Banshee - and I'd spilled coffee over that Beefheart CD and thought it was gone for ever....
