Currently, the lack of ability to purchase music online is probably hurting Ubuntu. I realize the ogg format would be better, but this is the closest thing to "free" music that's out there. Gaining support from Amazon might help influence ogg support in the future.

If it affects their security then their system isn't safe in the first place.

If it the download client is distributed with linux, it will be easier to buy music which is good for Amazon.

I email them too.]]> Wed, 12 Mar 2008 13:10:14 +0000

Both are pretty huge company who do their best to be quasi-monopolist! Rather support Your local recordshop or at least projects like jamendo.com or magnatune.com (there You'll also get the desired .ogg-files)

Amazon already provides a .deb package - download and install in one click. Try it.

This item can already go into the Medibuntu repository. No license change needed - that's what Medibuntu is for.

Since the package is already supported by Amazon, why should Canonical get involved at all? It's not their package.]]> Wed, 12 Mar 2008 15:08:31 +0000 Wed, 12 Mar 2008 17:44:50 +0000
