Install amazonmp3 on a 64-bit desktop
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.
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
- Installed clamz from the Ubuntu Software Store
- Purchased the album I wanted from Amazons site - One click download link
- Amazon sent me a link with an amz extension
- Opened the amz file and a terminal window opened and I was downloading
Not the pretties, but really awesome!
