Hi all,
Does anybody know if there's anything other than amazonMP3 which will
open .amz files.
Despite what it says in the Amazon MP3 faq:

They don't seem to publish any details of the file format - and the only way
to buy albums is by using their binary only program. Since they have at least
gone to the trouble of porting the program to Linux (and producing a Fedora9
package - I'm currently running Fedora 9) I was **even** prepared to use it,
but trying to install it turned up lots of missing dependencies - it seems
I'd at least need to install a large part of Gnome to get it working.
